AbstractA difficult airway in childhood is very uncommon. Therefore, it will always be an unfamiliar and menacing situation for most anaesthetists. Knowledge of the individual pathology, associated anaesthesiological problems and possible solutions provide the basis for successful airway management. Endoscopical techniques are essential for the process. The following article shows how a difficult airway in childhood can be recognized and which anaesthesiological options exist to handle such a situation.(c) Georg Thieme Verlag KG Stuttgart-New York.
