Department of Anaesthesiology, Aga Khan University Hospital, Karachi, Pakistan.
Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) in the head and neck present significant challenges due to airway management complexities and hemorrhage risks. This case report describes a 15-year-old female with a congenital facial AVM causing dyspnea and obstructive symptoms. The patient required angioembolization of the AVM, but many hospitals deferred the procedure due to the anticipated difficult airway and severe bleeding risks.

Department of Anesthesiology, Peking University Third Hospital, No. 49, North Garden Street, Haidian District, Beijing, 100191, China.
Backgrounds: Anticipating difficult laryngoscopy is crucial for preoperative assessment, especially for patients with cervical spondylosis. Radiological assessment has become essential for improving airway management safety. This research introduces novel radiological indicators from lateral cervical X-ray in the extended head position proposed to enhance the accuracy of predicting difficult laryngoscopy.

Objective: The aim of this study was to estimate the level of knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR) among primary healthcare (PHC) physicians in Saudi Arabia.
Methods: This quantitative cross-sectional study used an online-based questionnaire distributed to physicians in PHC facilities and hospitals in Saudi Arabia. The questionnaire consisted of four sections that provided data on demographics, knowledge, attitudes, and practices.
Validity of Airway Ultrasound in Correlation with Cormack-Lehane Grading in Obese Patients: A Cross-Sectional Study.
Anesth Pain Med
April 2024
Department of Anesthesia and Surgical Intensive Care, Helwan University, Cairo, Egypt.
Background: Ultrasound (US) of the upper airway has the potential to be a valuable addition to traditional clinical evaluation methods.
Objectives: This work aimed to assess the validity of US in correlation with Cormack-Lehane grading (CLG) in obese patients.
Methods: This cross-sectional work was performed on 78 patients ranging in age between 21 and 60 years, both genders with the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) II-III individuals and body mass index (BMI) 30 kg/m² or more, under general anesthesia with endotracheal tube placement.
Awake 160-Slice Computed Tomography for Upper Airway Evaluation in 17 Dogs.
Vet Sci
July 2024
AURA Veterinary LTD, Guildford GU2 7AJ, UK.
This study investigated using a 160-slice multidetector computed tomography (CT) scanner for conscious image acquisition in dogs with upper airway disease, and describes findings in dogs that had previously undergone soft palate surgery. Seventeen client-owned dogs with upper airway disease were retrospectively reviewed, and classified into three groups: group I, "untreated brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome (BOAS) patients"; group II, "previously treated BOAS patients"; and group III, "patients with respiratory disease other than BOAS". Data included signalment, clinical history, direct laryngoscopy and endoscopy findings, previous surgeries and CT findings.
