- Summary: Nasotracheal intubation is generally a safe procedure for securing a definitive airway prior to oropharyngeal surgery. However it is associated with specific injuries that range from minor mucosal injury, to retrophayngeal perforation leading to death. We report a rare case of soft palate perforation during conventional nasotracheal intubation and discuss measures to avoid its occurrence.
