| Abstract: | Pigs are frequently anaesthetized in animal research settings. Due to the unique laryngeal anatomy, endotracheal intubation is demanding in pigs. Several complications associated with endotracheal intubation have been reported in pigs, but laryngeal perforation following difficult intubation has not been documented so far. The present case report describes laryngeal perforation in a three-month-old pig following difficult intubation. |
