Abstract
In part 1 of this review of management of the airway in maxillofacial surgery we discuss preoperative assessment of the airway, and the practical means to deal with difficulties. We review the evidence for videolaryngoscopy and flexible indirect laryngoscopy, together with surgical access to the airway including tracheostomy, cricothyroidotomy, and submental intubation.
