Brief Summary
A technique not yet described in the literature and allowing anesthesiologists who do not regularly practice fibroscopy or who do not routinely have this type of apparatus for their procedures, to install straight double-lumen tubes without compromising the ventilation of the patient. The aim is to introduce a central venous catheter wire guide into the bronchial arm of the right double-lumen tube and insert it into the right upper lobe bronchus orifice under fluoroscopic control. Then, to validate the new technique, we will carry out a fibroscopic control.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Measurement of the distance between the lateral orifice of the tube and the orifice of the right upper lobe bronchus
Fibroscopic measurement to assess the correct positioning of the right-sided double lumen tube with the wire guide and the fluoroscopy
20 minutes
Secondary Outcomes (1)
Total time spent to correctly position the right-sided double lumen tube
20 minutes
Study Arms (2)
Positioning of right-sided double lumen tube with fluoroscopy
EXPERIMENTALpositioning of the right-sided double lumen tube with a wire guide and fluoroscopy
Positioning of right-sided double lumen tube with fibroscope
EXPERIMENTALpositioning of the right sided double lumen tube in the same patient but with a fibroscope
Interventions
Verification of a new technique to assess the correct positioning of a right-sided double-lumen tube for left thoracic surgeries, using a central venous catheter wire guide and a radioscopy
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- all patients \> 18 years old who have to undergo a left thoracic surgery with a one lung ventilation technique
You may not qualify if:
- emergency surgical procedures, patients with predictable difficulties of insertion of a double-lumen endotracheal tube, hemodynamically unstable patients
