title: [Two consecutive intubations using neonatal Airtraq in an infant with difficult airway].
abstract: We used successfully Airtraq-combined to a gum-elastic boogie to intubate twice a dysmorphic infant with mucolipidosis, in whom direct laryngoscopy failed. If this result is confirmed by prospective studies, Airtraq could be a first-line device to intubate infants with difficult intubation.
