Abstract

This is a case presentation of a patient with a large anterior mediastinal mass in whom the airway was maintained with a laryngeal mask airway. The patient was otherwise managed in the "classic" fashion with spontaneous respiration via a light general anesthetic. In reviewing many of the potential pitfalls of anesthesia in this class of patients, the laryngeal mask airway was found to be both a valuable and viable option for airway management.
