    AbstractA nine-year-old boy with craniodiaphyseal dysplasia (CDD) presented for mandibular reduction. Patients with CDD present problems to the anaesthetist, specifically difficulties with airway management and tracheal intubation. This child was managed using laryngeal mask airway (LMA) guided fibreoptic intubation. Spontaneous respiration was maintained throughout intubation, following which ventilation was controlled and anaesthesia was provided using nitrous oxide, isoflurane and fentanyl. The perioperative management is described.
