AbstractA 39-year-old man with a history of transsphenoidal surgery was scheduled for sagittal split ramus osteotomy. Nasal intubation was successfully performed using a bronchoscope (BF) and a gum elastic bougie (GB). inserted using a BE The BF was then replaced with a GB. We widened his nasal cavity using the nasal airway. Finally, intubation was performed with an endotracheal tube (7.0 mm) using a GB and a Macintosh laryngoscope. Thus, BF and GB could be safely used for nasal intubation in a patient with a history of transsphenoidal surgery.
