Title microdirect laryngoscopy and bronchoscopy, myringotomy, and tympanostomy under THRIVE in a child with known difficult airway

Abstract

We present a case in which a pediatric patient with previously documented difficult intubation had successful oxygenation with transnasal humidified rapid insufflation ventilatory exchange (THRIVE) during microdirect laryngoscopy and bronchoscopy, myringotomy, and tympanostomy whilst general anesthesia was maintained by total intravenous anesthesia.
