title: The laryngeal mask airway facilitates intubation at cesarean section. A case report of difficult intubation.
abstract: Failed intubation at cesarean section presents the anesthesiologist with a challenge, and may subject both mother and baby to significant morbidity and in some cases, mortality. We report a case of failed intubation at an emergency cesarean section at which intubation was subsequently achieved using a laryngeal mask airway as a guide.
