AbstractWe present the case of a 25-year-old man with a significant neck mass and describe the technique used for managing his airway given limited equipment in an austere environment. Physical examination and imaging revealed significant proximal airway involvement. Without access to a fiberoptic bronchoscope, we sought a technique that might avoid contact with the mass from both the laryngoscope and endotracheal tube. In this case report, we describe our approach to left paraglossal laryngoscopy and intubation under general anesthesia-a method not well described in the literature and proved to be imperative for our airway management.
