Abstract
Airway management demands much more than mere technical proficiency with traditional methods of intubation. The anesthesiologists must be highly skilled in assessing the adequacy of the airway and must be familiar with the implications of various forms of airway pathology. Difficulties in intubation have been associated with serious complications, particularly when failed intubation has occurred (1). We describe a successful fiberoptic-guided tracheal intubation following several attempts of failed intubation in a post burn patient with tissue expander.
