%X Anesthesia for tracheobronchial surgeries has always been challenging. Despite the anesthetic and surgical refinements there are still no randomized trials comparing various methods of anesthetic management among these surgeries. Anesthesia for tracheobronchial surgeries is especially challenging, as anesthesia provider and surgeon share a common area of intervention. Therefore, close and effective communication between the anesthesia and surgery partners is essential. Over the years, numerous attempts have been made to improve the practice and several sophisticated technical approaches have been defined for various complex surgeries and diagnostic procedures. Advance planning, meticulous check-lists for anesthesia equipment, anticipation of possible complications, and good communication as well as coordination between the teams involved are the key components to design a successful anesthetic plan
