    AbstractTen patients, predicted to pose a difficult intubation of the trachea, underwent inhalational induction of anaesthesia using sevoflurane. In all 10 cases the airway was secured successfully and the patient proceeded to have the planned operation. In six of the cases the anaesthetist experienced a problem during the induction but in no case did this present any real difficulties or lead to a critical incident. We feel that sevoflurane has a place for inhalational induction in this challenging group of patients.
