156 - Widened Carina

View of the precarinal trachea with bulging of the posterior wall. Its folds are well marked and “tensed” to surround the carina, grossly enlarged on its edge and its slopes. The congestion of the mucosa is irregular because its nutrient vessels were trapped by regional tumor growth. Alejandro Posadas Hospital

147 – Tracheal Tumor

147 - voluminous formation

This voluminous formation seems to occupy all the light and deprives us of explaining how distal pulmonary ventilation is achieved. The reason is that before the muscle relaxation caused by general anesthesia, the tracheal diameter was greater and thus allowed air passage through the periphery of this large occupant lesion.
