- Abstract
Declaration of patient consent The authors certify that they have obtained all appropriate patient consent forms. Sir, Goldenhar syndrome (GS) is a rare congenital disease caused by abnormal development of first and second branchial arches, causing unilateral maxillary and mandibular hypoplasia along with vertebral anomalies resulting in limitation of neck movement. In one case, there was a tracheal bronchus that ended blindly; the endotracheal tube entered this blind pouch leading to the desaturation of the patient and cancellation of the surgery.[[2]] Fibreoptic intubation may be preferable in such cases.
