Abstract
One lung ventilation is being commonly used in children. Lung separation for one-lung ventilation can be accomplished by use of a double-lumen tube, a single-lumen tube (SLT) with intentional endobronchial intubation, a SLT with bronchial blocker or an arterial embolectomy catheter (Fogarty catheter), and a Univent tube. Placement of a bronchial blocker can be accomplished outside or within a SLT blindly and with the help of rigid or fiberoptic bronchoscope (FOB). We describe here successful placement of a bronchial blocker for one-lung ventilation through a SLT.
