We describe a technique involving the use of a laryngeal mask airway, fibreoptic bronchoscope and a guide wire to manage the intubation of a child who was known to be a difficult intubation. The technique is simple, atraumatic, permits the use of an adult bronchoscope for infants and children, and allows control of the airway and ventilation throughout the period of intubation.
