Management of the difficult paediatric airway is challenging due to anatomical differences, congenital anomalies, paucity of paediatric airway management algorithms, and the limited availability of paediatric-sized airway devices. In this case report, we describe two cases highlighting the potential use of seemingly oversized videolaryngoscopes in the management of the difficult paediatric airway. Recognising the cause of difficult airway in the paediatric population is potentially useful in the selection of a larger videolaryngoscope blade to aid laryngoscopy and intubation.
