    AbstractA newborn infant was diagnosed with an imperforate anus, and colostomy was performed one day after birth. He exhibited repeated episodes of poor oxygenation during intubation, and a CT scan revealed a bridging bronchus. He was scheduled to undergo sacroperineal repair in the prone position 8 months later. A tracheal tube, with its tip modified to widen the opening, was inserted through the nose. This led to normal oxygenation, even while in the prone position. The surgery was completed without any complications.© 2018 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.
