Abstract
We were greatly interested in the recent case report written by Walls et al. that described a maneuver to facilitate insertion of an endotracheal tube (ETT) into the trachea in a patient with the good laryngeal view obtained by the GlideScope® video laryngoscope (GSVL) (1). Advancing the ETT through the glottis into the trachea is indeed a troublesome problem during intubations using the GSVL with a significant angulated blade, because the ETT must be presented to the glottis, which may not be in the line of sight (2).
