Brief Summary
Management of a "difficult airway" remains one of the most relevant and challenging tasks for anesthesiologists and pulmonary physicians. Tracheal stenosis is not common but serious complication of prolonged intubation and tracheostomy patients. The incidence of stenosis is very low if intubation lasts less than a week and patients may be asymptomatic for a long time. On presentation, tracheal stenosis may be mistaken for asthma with dyspnea and stridor. The choice of treatment depends on the site, grade, and length of stenosis, as well as on patient comorbidities, history of previous interventions, and the expertise of the surgical team. In this case report the investigators wanted to present a case of a 25-year-old female with post-intubation tracheal stenosis who was intubated for the management of severe preeclampsia.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
post-intubation tracheal stenosis
The severity of tracheal stenosis was based on Cotton criteria confirmed by a Computerized tomography (CT) scan and the size of the tube that passed through it. If the Tracheal diameter is\> 8 mm but symptomatic mild, 5-8 mm moderate, and \<5 mm severe, and the effect of the severe tracheal stenosis was observed on anesthesia position, tracheal intubation technique, tube size that would challenge anesthesia management is reported
the patient was follwed for 1 wk
