Abstract
Traditionally major surgical procedures are contemplated in tracheobronchial pathology as the first line of management. Efficient and skillful use of airway equipment can help in the management and prevention of significant perioperative morbidity. Three cases of airway pathology (tracheal stenosis, bronchial stenosis and tracheal tumour) which were managed with the help of airway equipment such as fibreoptic bronchoscope, Cook's and Patil tube changers are presented. The techniques are simple and safe and may help the surgeons to 'buy' time to plan definitive treatment.
