RESUMEN
This case report describes two patients admitted to our hospital for elective surgery, one for biliary disease and the other for vascular disease. Shortly after surgery each presented a clinical picture attributable to membranous tracheal pars rupture caused by anesthetic intubation. Airway lesions were diagnosed and, after patient status was evaluated, conservative medical treatment was prescribed in both cases. Outcome was excellent, with no complications, within a few days. These cases demonstrate the efficacy of this way of managing this potentially serious complication.
