AbstractThe authors present a preliminary and retrospective study about the utilization of laryngeal mask. 21 patients underwent surgery concerning short or mid term intervention. A positioning of a laryngeal mask was easy with 83 p.c. of success. Although no shortcomings appeared in this series, one must know such a possibility and must take it into considerations. Not at all replacing endotracheal intubation, the laryngeal mask is in peculiar situations an other possibility of protection of respiratory tract, and of ventilation be spontaneous manual or mechanical. The advantages of laryngeal mask versus facial one are obvious.
