Abstract
Negative pressure pulmonary edema (NPPE) during anesthetic recovery is a rare, but potentially serious complication for patients who are undergoing different surgical procedures. The proposed mechanism is the generation of high negative pressure during markedly respiratory effort and upper airway obstruction from glottis closure and laryngospasm, and this all leads to pulmonary edema. We report here on a case of a healthy 26-year-old male who immediately developed NPPE and hemoptysis following extubation after partial rib resection due to benign rib tumor; the patient was treated conservatively. We also include a review of the review literatures.
