  • Title: [Difficult intubation in maxillofacial surgery. Tracheotomy or fibroscopy?].
    Author: Richter M, Tassonyi E, Chausse JM.
    Journal: Rev Stomatol Chir Maxillofac; 1989; 90(6):367-70. PubMed ID: 2814314.
    Abstract:
    Prior to general anesthesia, some maxillofacial conditions may require tracheostomy or, in recent years, fiberoptic endotracheal intubation. This technic is efficient but delicate and therefore needs a skilled qualified operator. However, fiberoptic endoscope may avoid the inconvenience of tracheostomy. This article presents our method of fiberoptic endotracheal intubation with the specific indications and results.
