RESUMEN
A bent lighted stylet has demonstrated effectiveness for intubating patients with difficult airways. We report a case of successful intubation using a lighted stylet that was bent to configure the upper airway passage in a patient with ankylosis of the temporo-mandibualr joint and a small inter-incisor gap with diffuse submandibular abscesses. We suppose that lighted stylets with different bends can be used in difficult airway cases. The usefulness of a bent lighted stylet to fit the upper airway passage needs further evaluation for additional clinical application.

Significant hemodynamic change is rarely shown in the case of bypass surgery for infra-renal aortic aneurysm.However, a man underwent aortoiliac bypass surgery for dissecting infra-renal aortic aneurysm experienced sudden cardiac arrest and hypoxemia just after declamping of aorta and subsequent renal impairment.We supposed that transient myocardial dysfunction after declamping and release of inflammatory materials after reperfusion caused cardiac arrest and renal impairment.Therefore, careful anesthetic management is needed not only during the clamping of aorta but also at the time of declamping even in the infra-renal aortic bypass surgery.

A woman presented severe mitral stenosis at 34 weeks' gestation. She did not respond to medical therapy, and underwent successful percutaneous mitral balloon valvuloplasty with monitored anesthetic care. The remainder of her pregnancy was uncomplicated, and she delivered a healthy infant at 38 weeks' gestation. We proved monitored anesthetic care is available method in percutaneous mitral balloon valvuloplasty for severe mitral stenosis during pregnancy.
