Insertion of a Fogarty catheter through a slip joint section for neonatal and infantile one-lung ventilation : a report of two cases.

Here, we report two cases involving a neonate and child in which a slip joint section was used to thread a Fogarty catheter into the endotracheal tube for one-lung ventilation (OLV). Both the neonate and infant required OLV, and were placed under general anesthesia. A Fogarty catheter was used for OLV.
