Özet

Severe intraoperative hypoxemia occurred in a healthy 18-yr-old accident victim scheduled to undergo operation because of maxillofacial trauma. Almost complete atelectasia was noticed in X-ray in the left lung. Fiberoptic bronchoscopy revealed a blood clot in the left main bronchus. Hypoxia and atelectasia improved immediately after removal of the blood clot. Obstruction due to clotted blood in the bronchus causing atelectasia after nasotracheal intubation should be kept in mind as a cause of intraoperative hypoxemia.
