Abstract
We describe the anaesthetic management using i-gel for airway maintenance in a patient with kyphoscoliosis presenting for emergency caesarean section due to fetal distress and scar tenderness. The patient had a history of previous caesarean section under general anaesthesia, and presently her cardiorespiratory status is stable. We used i-gel, the new supraglottic airway device, for maintaining the airway under intravenous anaesthesia using propofol.
