“…We found that 22.6% of intubated children reported POST, which is on the higher range of that previously reported in the literature (1,2). Sore neck and sore jaw were less common, and we are unaware of any literature reporting the incidence of these following intubation.…”

“…The incidence of postoperative sore throat (POST) following intubation is not well defined in the pediatric population and is estimated to occur in 5–23% (1,2) of children. It is a common and undesirable problem in adults affecting 12–60% of adult patients (3–6).…”

“…On the other hand, Rieger et al [6] concluded that there were no significant differences between the two methods in the overall incidence of PST, evaluated by a number of symptoms (continuous throat pain, dysphonia, dysphagia, and pharyngeal dryness) and severity in adult patients. Splinter et al [7] also showed that the overall incidence of PST on the first postoperative day was not significantly different between LMA and TT groups in children aged 3 to 12 years. To our knowledge, however, no reports have mentioned that the TT is superior to the LMA for airway management during surgery in regard to PST.…”

“…Several direct comparative studies have indicated that the laryngeal mask airway (LMA) is less invasive than the tracheal tube (TT) regarding PST in adults and children [3][4][5]. To the contrary, LMA did not decrease PST compared with TT in two studies of adults and children [6,7]. The advantage of the LMA, concerning PST, over TT remains controversial.…”

“…Endotracheal tubes were not used in the patients in this study, but a laryngeal mask was used in 26 children. It is recognized that use of a laryngeal mask may result in a sore throat, 28 and that insertion of a gastroscope past a laryngeal mask is more difficult. However, we could establish no statistically significant relationship between the use of a laryngeal mask and development of a sore throat ( P = 0.36).…”
