Airway management in patients with head and neck tumors can be challenging. In this anticipated difficult airway, an awake fiberoptic intubation with a NIM tube was performed in a patient with a large neck mass.doi:10.1007/978-1-4614-8696-1_5Bahareh Khatibi MD...
Lingual tonsillar hyperplasia is rare, and it may cause difficulty with tracheal intubation during induction of general anesthesia. A different orotracheal intubation technique was performed using a double-lumen endotracheal tube, flexib... TM Davidson,RC Bone,AM Nahum 被引量: 6发表: 1975年 Continu...
