Anesthesia-airway management in a newborn with syngnathia

We presented anesthesia and airway management in a newborn with syngnathia. Surgical correction of the syngnathia was planned by the department of plastic surgery in a newborn weighing 3400 g. Preoperatively, the patient was in good status, was active, and had pinkish skin color. In addition to mucosal adhesions in the upper and lower gingivae on the right side, a full-layer adhesion was present on the left side in both upper and lower gingivae that also involved the bony structures (Fig. 1). Other physical examination and laboratory results were within the reference range for age.
