- Abstract
Bilateral choanal atresia (CA) is a recognized neonatal emergency. Before corrective surgery, provision of a secure airway is crucial. No approach has been specifically advocated for preterm infants. We describe successful use of a novel airway in a preterm infant with CA.Journal of Perinatology (2007) 27, 521–522; doi:10.1038/sj.jp.7211778
