Abstract
Awake tracheostomy is rare in the pediatric population. We describe the case of a 10-year-old male who underwent awake tracheostomy due to airway obstruction from an oropharyngeal rhabdomyosarcoma. Given the varying medical understanding and communication skills in children, advanced planning and interdisciplinary collaboration are essential to keep the patient calm and safe during awake tracheostomy.
