AbstractPatients with Pierre Robin sequence present with numerous anatomical abnormalities that make mask ventilation and tracheal intubation challenging. In this case series, we describe a unique way to overcome upper airway obstruction with the placement of a supraglottic airway in 4 children with Pierre Robin sequence followed by flexible bronchoscopic nasotracheal intubation. This new approach is proven to be a successful method to overcome severe upper airway obstruction, provide continuous oxygenation, and allows nasotracheal intubation for intraoral procedures.
