    Abstract:
    We report anesthetic management for fiberoptic laryngoscopy in a 10-month-old boy with stridor, due possibly to bilateral vocal cord palsy after coin lithium battery ingestion. After pre-oxygenation of the child, anesthesia was induced with propofol 16 mg (2 mg · kg(-1)) and rocuronium 8 mg (1 mg · kg(-1)). After assist mask ventilation with sevoflurane 5-6%, we inserted a laryngeal mask. The fiberoptic laryngoscopy was smoothly performed by passing a fiberscope through the laryngeal mask. At the end of the procedure, the patient was sent back to the ward.
