| dc.description.abstract | Blepharophimosis syndrome (BS) is a rare autosomal dominant syndrome characterized by eyelid malformations, and abnormal facial morphology. Flat and wide nasal roots, short neck, restricted mouth opening and neck extension, characteristic facial appearance, microcephaly and micrognathia make airway management of patients with BS important for anesthesiologists. Due to systemic pathologies and craniofacial anomalies, difficult airway may be seen in these patients and anesthesia management is important in patients with BS. Because of the difficult airway risk, it is important to determine the anesthetic method and make the necessary preparations. In this case report, we aimed to present difficult airway management of a patient with BS who underwent surgery for ocular disorders. This case report is the second case presented by successful airway management in general anesthesia practice | en_US |
