Endotracheal Tube Obstruction via Turbinectomy During Nasal Intubation.

The purpose of this article is to describe a case of an accidental turbinectomy during nasal intubation for an elective oral and maxillofacial surgical case that was confirmed after extubation. While there are several reported cases, this still tends to be an overall rare complication in the field of anesthesia. This article highlights the complications encountered due to turbinectomy while also identifying causes, signs, and methods to prevent it.
