Study design: Case Report
Abstract: A difficult airway is a life-threatening clinical situation in which a trained anesthesiologist experiences difficulty ventilating the upper airway with a tight mask, difficulty intubation the trachea, or both. This is an important socio-economic problem that makes a significant contribution to the structure of intraoperative mortality and disability of patients. A clinical observation of difficult airways in a patient with ankylosing spondylitis who was scheduled to have a brain tumor removed is presented.
