We report insertion of the SaCoVLM TM  in three awake morbidly obese patients (BMI 46. 7–52.1 kg/m 2 ). The patients were given intravenous atropine and midazolam injections after entering the operating room and then inhaled an anesthetic with 2% lidocaine atomization. After SaCoVLM TM  insertion while patients were awake, when the vocal cords were visualized, controlled anesthetic induction commenced with spontaneous ventilation. The entire anesthesia induction and intubation process was completed under visualization, and no adverse events such as hypoxemia occurred. No patient had an unpleasant recall of the procedure. We conclude that the SaCoVLM TM  is easy to use, well tolerated and suitable for awake orotracheal intubation in patients with known difficult airways.
