Abstract
Instead of a conventional double lumen tube, an Arndt wire-guided endobronchial blocker was used to achieve one-lung ventilation in a dog undergoing thoracoscopic pericardiectomy. Overall, lung separation was easy to perform and surgical conditions for the creation of a pericardial window were adequate. Special ventilation strategies were applied.
