A2 - Murphy, Michael F. PY - 2017 T2 - Hung's Difficult and Failed Airway Management, 3e AB - A 52-year-old worker of normal body habitus was injured in a fall from approximately 15 feet (5 m) of height. He sustained fractures to the vertebral bodies of C3 and C4, as well as a C5 transverse process fracture. He was retrieved by an ambulance team and admitted to the hospital in a hemodynamically stable condition. His breathing on admission was noted to be “normal,” albeit with decreased air entry to the right side. An infiltrate on chest x-ray was consistent with aspiration. Neurologically, the patient was awake and alert. He had evidence of a Brown-Sequard syndrome with an almost complete paralysis of his left limbs and a sensory deficit on his right.
