AbstractIn the era of fiberoptics, securing of the airway under general anesthesia in small children with temporomandibular joint ankylosis without a flexible pediatric fiberoptic endoscope requires considerable skill. We describe the use of an adult flexible fiberoptic laryngoscope with a video camera system to visualize the glottis from one nostril while the tracheal tube was passed from the other nostril.
