The video laryngoscopes blind spots and possible lingual nerve injury by the Gliderite rigid stylet--case presentation and review of literature
Abstract
We report the first case of near serious lingual nerve injury in an 80-y-old female caused by the Rigid GlideScope Stylet. This complication was discovered during oral surgery and may have been missed if the site of surgery was not oral cavity.
