【 摘 要 】

Abstract Formal guidelines for awake tracheal intubation have recently been published providing a streamlined process for the first time. We present a case of awake videolaryngoscopy in the pediatric setting, not previously reported. Application of guidelines and careful team preparation facilitated performance of a novel technique in our pediatric institution. A multidisciplinary approach with ENT colleagues provided a patient‐specific airway management plan for a rare airway pathology.
