    AbstractA massive pulmonary hemorrhage is an emergency that can lead to airway compromise and cardiovascular collapse. The goals of airway management are to isolate and protect the nonbleeding lung while providing a route for interventions to diagnose and control the bleeding site. We present a case of an adult male with a lung mass who underwent a bronchoscopy and cryobiopsy that was complicated by a massive pulmonary hemorrhage. We report the successful use of an elongated fabricated end-to-end endotracheal tube to manage his airway during this time-critical situation.Copyright © 2023 International Anesthesia Research Society.
