Abstract

Glidescope GVL® is frequently used in intubation of difficult airway. We report a case of right side of faucial pillar perforation during intubation with Glidescope®. A rigid stylet can facilitate placing of endotracheal tube quickly but it may also penetrate the soft tissue to cause injuries.
