RESUMO
A young male patient presented with an incidental finding of a large supraglottic vascular lesion. The lesion was initially noted during intubation 4 years ago. Although originally listed for elective excision, there was a significant delay and at the time of surgery, the lesion proved too large to remove and a significant threat to the patient's airway. An emergency tracheostomy was performed, followed by two consecutive treatments with sclerotherapy agents to reduce the size of the lesion. It was then successfully excised using a Thunderbeat ultrasound and bipolar dissection and cautery device.
