Abstract

Tracheal injury is a rare but potentially life-threatening complication of endotracheal intubation. In our department, we have recorded a case of intubation tracheal injury presented with severe haemoptysis.

With our case report we would like to bring to mind that even uncomplicated elective intubation carries this risk.
