    AbstractBranchial arches represent embryological precursors of the face, neck, and pharynx, and developmental abnormalities of these branchial arch derivatives can lead to airway anomalies. We report definitive repair of the fistula in an infant with a rare congenital laryngopharyngo-cutaneous fistula. This is the first report that describes a 2-stage fiberoptic intubation, a challenging technique performed for airway management of the aforementioned fistula in a patient with a difficult airway.Copyright © 2020 International Anesthesia Research Society.
