“…8 An operation may be needed in Escobar syndrome for cleft palate, bands between maxilla and mandibula, adhesion of palate to tonsills, syndactyly, scoliosis, pesequinovarus, genital abnormalities, umbilical or inguinal hernia, and congenital hip dislocation. 11 Our case was consulted with Paediatric and Orthopedic surgeon and was advised for follow up in subsequent settings. The baby had no adverse event but she was discharged with NG tube in situ as feeding could not be established due to very small opening of mouth.…”

As syngnathia can present with varied severity, ranging from simple mucosal strings to extensive bony fusion, the establishment and control of the airway prior to surgery can be difficult and constitute a challenge to the anesthesiologists.…”

“…In our patient, the thin anterior syngnathia was excised in this manner. The literature describes attempted nasotracheal intubation that failed to secure the airway due to a cleft palate [6] or due to an extreme position of the glottic opening [9]. Deskin et al chose to excise the syngnathia under mask anesthesia and oxygenation, which has also been described by Murphy et al [12].…”
