B S Krishnan1, Naveen Eipe, Grace Korula.   

Abstract

A 12-year-old girl diagnosed with achondroplasia was admitted for bilateral ear surgery and adenotonsillectomy. She had classical symptoms and signs of upper airway obstruction, which is often seen in patients with achondroplasia. We describe the anaesthetic management of this patient, emphasizing the airway difficulties encountered and their anaesthetic implications.
