Videolaryngoscope Assisted Fiberoptic Bronchoscopy for Difficult Intubation in Upper Airway Cancer

Recent publications have shown evidence that use of high resolution digital video laryngoscope (VLS), when compared to conventional direct laryngoscope (DL), is superior when managing difficult airways in elective and emergency settings [1,2] In a large-scale multivariate model Mosier J et al. [3] compared VLS alone to DL with a MacIntosh blade for difficult airway management in the emergency department.
