요약
Intubation of a 23-month-old child suffering epiglottitis was complicated by pulmonary edema progressing to the adult respiratory distress syndrome. Increased pulmonary shunt and pulmonary hypertension required high levels of positive end-expiratory pressure and prolonged mechanical ventilation to correct hypoxemia. A possible role for a cuffed endotracheal tube in epiglottitis is discussed.
