- Abstract
Commonly seen complications of tracheostomy include hemorrhage, obstruction, and pneumothorax. These primary complications usually become apparent quickly after the procedure. However, some complications manifest themselves at a later stage. Granular tissue, Scar formation, tracheal stenosis, ulceration, tracheoesophageal fistula and corrosion of the small arteries are not rarely seen secondary complications in tracheostomy(Engels, Bagshaw, Meier, & Brindley, 2009). We report an unusual case of a tracheostomy tube complication in an adult male.
