Case Reports
Supraglottic jet ventilation assists intubation in a Marfan's syndrome patient with a difficult airway.
A 37 year old woman with Marfan's syndrome underwent an elective gynecologic procedure. Mask ventilation was not difficult but initial direct laryngoscopy showed no view of the glottic opening. ⋯ The technique provided oxygenation and ventilation during intubation and assisted intubation of a patient with a grade III glottic view. No hypoxia or barotrauma were noted during the intubation.
