Method: Fifteen patients, all ASA I-II, aged from 1.5 to 9years, who were undergoing elective surgeries were included. Difficult endotracheal intubation, but not difficult ventilation, was possible for all. The adult fiberoptic bronchoscope (FOB) was used to provide a vision of the glottis, and the CARTO catheter (a cardiac interventional catheter) with adjustable tip was used to induce the endotracheal tube. Results: All patients were successfully intubated within 1-2min at the first attempt. Conclusion: Combined use of adult FOB and CARTO catheter may be an alternative device for tracheal intubation in children with known difficult airway.
