Ultrasound-guided superior laryngeal nerve block assists in anesthesia for bronchoscopic surgical procedure: A case report of anesthesia for rigid bronchoscopy


Evolving techniques in the field of therapeutic bronchoscopy have led to the return of rigid bronchoscopy in the
treatment of complex central airway disease. Rigid bronchoscopy is typically performed under general anesthesia because of the
strong stimulation caused by metal instruments. Anesthesia for rigid bronchoscopy is challenging to administer because
anesthesiologists and interventionists share the same working channel: the airway. Previously reviewed anesthetic methods are used
primarily for short procedures. Balanced anesthesia with ultrasound-guided superior laryngeal nerve (SLN) block and total
intravenous anesthesia might provide anesthesia for a prolonged procedure and facilitate patient recovery
