Abstract

The big tumors in the neck have being associated with intubation difficulties. We made the presurgery evaluation of the aerial tract through the medical records, physical and complementary examinations. We considered a difficult aerial tract and made the induction with halothane, achieving tracheal intubation without complications. The inhalant intubation allowed the endotracheal intubation in a patient considered as a difficult aerial tract.
