[Air-Q® intubating laryngeal airway as a conduit for tracheal intubation in a patient with Apert syndrome: a case report].
Masui. the Japanese Journal of Anesthesiology 2014 October
We present a case of an 18-year-old male who underwent strabismus operation under general anesthesia. In his childhood, tracheostomy had been performed for the repair of cleft lip and palate. His Mallampati classification was IV and preoperative endoscopic examination revealed megaloglossia and severe airway narrowing. For possible difficult airway, intubating laryngeal airway (air-Q®, size 2.5) was used for tracheal intubation. Following insertion of air-Q®, trachea was intubated via air-Q® guided with fiberscope. The patient was ventilated via tracheal tube with the air-Q® remaining in place during the operation. air-Q® can be effectively utilized for airway management for an adult Apert syndrome patient
