    AbstractMany clinicians intubate newborns using a stylet, but how many always check if the device is intact after use? We describe a case of endobronchial obstruction by a plastic sheath coating the metal stylet, and suggest ways to reduce the incidence of this serious iatrogenic complication.Copyright 2008 S.
