Abstract
A healthy 34 year old man was referred to the operating room for the repair of his totally avulsed lower jaw. He did not tolerate the supine position and always maintained a sitting position to keep his airway open. The patient was successfully managed with a special anesthetic technique to overcome his airway problem and to intubate him.
