Core Tip	Bronchial dehiscence is a significant airway complication following lung transplantation and most commonly occurs at anastomotic sites due to poor collateral perfusion. This complication is often difficult to treat, especially when widespread. Severe disease has been treated with the temporary placement of metallic stents within the airway to promote healing, but limited options exist when stenting fails. This case report presents the anesthetic considerations for a lung transplant patient undergoing bronchoscopic placement of an amniotic membrane graft as a novel solution for non-healing bronchial dehiscence after multiple failed attempts with metallic stent placement.
