Anatomy of the blood supply to the nose and Foley catheter insertion of epistaxis.
Facial appearance of this patient shows slight degree of micrognathia and mandibular retraction, blepharodiastasis, short neck and hypoplastic nose wings.
The patients with the RED system were ventilated using a facemask for infants. The facemask for infants was positioned over the nose; the mouth was occluded by an assistant.
Foreign body found in pharynx from previous surgery.
Recommended airway management for patients with unexpected and expected epiglottic cysts. (A) Unexpected epiglottic cysts: If epiglottic cysts are detected during initial intubation after induction of general anesthesia, assess whether face mask ventilation is adequate or not. (I) If face mask ventilation is adequate, use of a video laryngoscope is recommended for intubation. If unsuccessful and face mask ventilation is adequate, consider fiberoptic intubation or other alternative approaches. (II) If face mask ventilation is not adequate, initially attempt intubation using the planned method. If initially unsuccessful, consider use of a video laryngoscope, following the steps of the American Society of Anesthesiology Practice Guidelines for Management of the Difficult Airway 12 algorithm. Otolaryngology consultation may be warranted prior to extubation. (B) Expected epiglottic cysts: For the airway management of the patient with known epiglottic cysts, a consideration of the relative clinical merits and feasibility of 3 management choices is needed: (I) awake intubation using a video laryngoscope or a fiberoptic scope, (II) after an awake look using a video laryngoscope, awake intubation or intubation after induction of general anesthesia using a video laryngoscope or a fiberoptic scope, (III) intubation after induction.
