Management of a patient posted for laparotomy with severe kyphoscoliosis case report
Abstract
Abstract : A 55 year old male patient who presented with
ruptured hydatid cyst was posted for laparotomy. He was a
known case progressive kyphoscoliosis with ankylosing
spondylitis. A preoperative assessment of difficult intubation
was done. He was successfully intubated using intubating
laryngeal mask airway after trial laryngoscopy failed.Intra
operative and post operative period was uneventful.
Keyword :kyphoscoliosis, intubating laryngeal mask airway,
ankylosing spondylitis.
