520 _aAbstract: The main responsibility of an anesthesiologist is to establish a patent airway for adequate gas exchange during general anesthesia. The anticipation of a possible difficult ventilation and intubation situation will contribute to a successful airway management. Video laryngoscopy (VL) can be used in patients with difficult airway or in patients who had multiple failures in DL. The objectives of this case report are 1) to present a case of a 45-year old female with fixed, laterally-flexed neck scheduled for exploratory laparotomy, 2) to identify the factors for possible difficult ventilation or intubation present in this patient that contributed to difficult laryngoscopy and intubation and 3) to discuss the airway techniques and maneuvers done in this patient to achieve the best possible setting for a successful intubation.
