title: [Problems and complications in airway management by endotracheal intubation and laryngeal mask airway].
abstract: The endotracheal intubation and laryngeal mask airway confer many advantages for surgical patients. However, a number of problems and complications with airway management by endotracheal intubation and laryngeal mask airway have been documented. In this report, several problems by using endotracheal intubation (e.g. hoarseness, arytenoids dislocation) and laryngeal mask airway (e.g. aspiration, oropharyngeal leak, gastric distension) are summarized.
