As a result of intraoral synechiae, fusion of the palatal shelves may be prevented because of the abnormal interposition of the tongue. Hence, cleft palate anomaly accompanies intraoral synechiae in many patients. The main problem for these patients is the inadequate oral opening for feeding. Flexible nasopharyngeal examination before intubation may help the anesthetist for simple excision of synechiae in the newborn period. In this article, a newborn who had a congenital synechia between the mandible and the maxilla has been presented, and the etiopathogenesis of intraoral synechia and the importance of flexible nasal endoscopy before endotracheal intubation are discussed.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessIntraoral SynechiaCleft PalateSyndromeSequenceFlexible Nasal EndoscopyArticle233Q4Q3E194E19522627430WOS:000304479600010
