Abstract

A difficult extubation!

An 8 y old male child suffered from Crouzon syndrome, in whom intubation was perceived to be difficult, but extubation expected to be much more difficult. Crouzon syndrome is a genetic disorder characterized by the premature fusion of skull bones (craniosynostosis). This early fusion prevents the skull from growing normally and affects the shape of the head and face.
