Summary The authors describe the use of nasotracheal AirtraQ ® laryngoscope to perform orotracheal intubation with reinforced endotracheal tube in patients with difficult airways. The choice of nasotracheal AirtraQ ® instead of orotracheal device resulted from the difficulty that they sometimes found using orotracheal AirtraQ ® with reinforced endotracheal tube. The nasotracheal AirtraQ ® may be successfully used to perform orotracheal intubation with styletted reinforced endotracheal tube, specially in case of difficulty in advancing it inside the tube‐guiding channel of orotracheal AirtraQ ® .
