About 45 minutes after the beginning of surgery sudden respiratory deterioration occurred, with an increase in oxygen demand up to FiO2 0.95 as well as consecutive decrease in lung compliance with peak inspiratory pressure (PIP) reaching 60-65 cm H2O in order to maintain adequate ventilation (see Figure 1).
