In mouth breathing children, lateral cephalometric radiography using two-dimensional images could only distinguish possible obstruction of nasopharynx; video endoscopy with a flexible

Foreign donors had provided the basic equipment like bomb disposal suit, X-ray machine for scanning,
fiberscope and water disruptor.
Patients were divided into two groups of nasal intubation; either Group A, in which nasal ETT was inserted through the patent nostril till 18 cm mark and Group B, in which split nasopharyngeal airway (SPNA) was inserted to be used as a conduit for
fiberscope.
Movement of the upper cervical spine during laryngoscopy: a comparison of the Bonfils intubation
fiberscope and the Macintosh laryngoscope.
With the development of this method, the diameter of the fistula was enlarged even up to 20 mm, which allowed the insertion of
