Rzadki przypadek śmierci wskutek uduszenia się w następstwie zamknięcia światła górnych dróg oddechowych przez torbiel krtani
Journal Title: Otolaryngologia Polska - Year 2011, Vol 65, Issue 3
Abstract
SUMMARY The report presents a rare case of suffocation due to upper airways obstruc-tion by a large mucolaryngocoele. The mechanism of death by suffocation was confirmed by histopathological examination of the Iungs which showed acute Iungs ectasy. Location of the laryngocoele hindered standard intuba-tion by emergency doctor. Maybe the victim's life could have been saved by immediate conio- or tracheotomy, which in this case was not performed
