Abstract
Incidence of difficult airway in the obstetric population is high (0.3%), but multiple reattempts should be avoided to prevent trauma and likely desaturation.[1] Proseal laryngeal mask airway (PLMA®)/LMA Supreme® (SLMA) can be the first choice after failed intubation attempts as these two devices have been shown to be effective. These devices have their own problems, however, and one such potential complication is presented in this case report.
