Abstract

Obstructive tracheal pseudomembrane is a rare complication of endotracheal intubation, which could cause fatal airway obstruction following extubation. Hereby, we reported a patient who had only undergone a short course of intubation for a laparoscopic cholecystectomy and developed progressive respiratory distress after extubation.
