1 One-lung ventilation during surgical procedures on the main bronchus and carina

2 Fig. 1 The endobronchial tube is inserted into a standard tracheal tube and positioned in the nonsurgical stem bronchus, thus allowing space in the event the operation should involve this area. The tubes assembled in this way define two independent channels, each connected with one lung. The right tube is fitted with a lateral branch to compensate for the anatomic variations in length of the right main bronchus.
