Abstract: Airway management is a basic goal of an anesthesiologist. This require adequate knowledge of the airway anatomy and algorithm of difficult airway management. Leading causes of major anesthesia-related morbidity and mortality are due to airway complexities and mismanagement. Airway management is well-handled with the use of devics and studied techniques incorporated in the ASA difficult airway management algorithm. With all these in mind, the anesthesiologist can intubate a seemingly difficult one. Presented is a case of an obese patient with difficult airway to undergo exploration and repair of multiple facial injuries. The anesthesiologist successfully intubated the patient using a lighted seeing styulette, after several attempts of using the conventional laryngoscope.
