Imaging appearance of a post-intubation cricoid chondronecrosis

open access: yesBJR|case reports, 2016
Chondronecrosis is a known complication of external beam radiation therapy and endotracheal intubation. Radiation therapy is the most common cause of chondronecrosis owing to local cartilage ischaemia following treatment. Prolonged endotracheal intubation can lead to chondronecrosis as it is associated with excessive pressure on the cartilage by the ...
