Conclusion:
We reported that DLT and single lumen tracheal intubation were equally effective for lung deflation during surgery, and SLT with HFPPV ventilation mode during endoscopic thoracic sympathetic blockade surgery provided the surgeon with an adequate and clean workspace with shorter onset of anesthesia. We may suggest the HFPPV technique for uncomplicated surgery groups or where sufficient conditions for DLT cannot be provided in the operating room.
