DIAZ-DEL BOSQUE, María Alicia et al. Tracheal injury, tension pneumothorax and pneumomediastinum, after percutaneous tracheostomy in COVID-19: report of a case. Med. crít. (Col. Mex. Med. Crít.) [online]. 2021, vol.35, n.5, pp.269-272. Epub 23-Maio-2022. ISSN 2448-8909. https://doi.org/10.35366/102356.
Percutaneous tracheostomy is a generally safe procedure, although not without risk of complications, it is considered the procedure of choice in critically ill patients with prolonged mechanical ventilation. We present the case of a woman with acute respiratory failure syndrome secondary to COVID-19 pneumonia who required percutaneous tracheostomy due to prolonged ventilation. The patient developed significant complications that required surgical intervention.
