AB Diagnostic  bronchoscopy  is  now  usually  performed  using  flexible  equipment,  whereas  therapeutic  bronchoscopy  may  be  conducted  with  both  flexible  and  rigid  equipment.  A  thorough  appreciation  of  both  is  essential  for  safe  anesthetic  management  in  the  bronchoscopy  suite.Unexpected  massive  bleeding  is  always  possible  during  cervical  mediastinoscopy,  and  thus  anesthesiologists  should  be  prepared  to  administer  large  volume  resuscitation  at  a  moment's  notice.Right  radial  artery  cannulation  is  preferred  in  order  to  alert  the  surgeon  to  innominate  artery  compression  with  risk  of  cerebral  ischemia.
