Abstract
To observe the clinical application of the modified laryngeal mask airway for endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration biopsy. By the induction of the general anesthesia, 42 patients undergoing endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration biopsy between september 2012 and may 2013 were managed with the modified laryngeal mask airway. The group consisted of 42 male patients aged 56 years to 67 years, with a median age of 61. No patient experienced any complications related to the operation, such as buckling, body movement, tracheospasm, pneumothorax and heavy bleeding. Controlled ventilation and bronchial endoscopy were non-interference in each other. And all patients had good ventilation. The satisfaction of thoracic surgery physicians, patients and anesthesiologists were also 100%. For patients presenting with EBUS-TBNA under general anesthesia with the modified laryngeal mask airway is a safe and reliable inspection method. This method can be used for routine examination.
