    AbstractWe experienced a difficult orotracheal intubation in a patient with Cornelia de Lange syndrome. The patient was an eight-year-old girl with Cornelia de Lange syndrome, cleft palate and tetralogy of Fallot who underwent emergency hemicolectomy for strangulation ileus. Orotracheal intubation using a Macintosh laryngoscope was unsuccessful. However, intubation using an endotracheal tube through the laryngeal mask airway with a fiberoptic bronchoscope was successful. The patient's condition was stable during both intubation and operation. In conclusion, we must be careful on endotracheal intubation of patients with congenital anomalies.
