They can be inserted through the authors laryngoscope, butthe best way is by the authors ex-tubal method. The forceps are in-serted alongside the laryngoscope, which is used only to look throughfor the accurate ocular guidance of the forceps as shown in the schemaFig. 84. The jaws can be placed and the bite made with great side-slide laryngoscope (Fig. l-)) because of its oval lumen is pre-.
