Abstract
Unpredictable difficult intubation is a commonly faced clinical issue and one of the most important reasons of morbidity related to anesthesia. We present a case of a 50 y old, 100 kg, 1.8 m tall (BMI=37) male patient, taken to OR (transoral robotic) for a planned biopsy because of a mass in his larynx. Videolaryngoscope was used two times but still intubation was unsuccessful.
