Abstract
Nasal intubation is an obvious choice for temporomandibular joint (TMJ) ankylosis surgery (Fig. 1). Adequate surgical access and better fixation makes RAE (Ring-Adair-Elwin) nasal tube a preferred choice. Conventional lighted stylet does not support RAE intubation due to short length of its stylet (Fig. 2). Our innovative lighted stylet can easily help in RAE tube insertion in these cases (Fig. 3)3. It is simple to make and can be easily assembled from materials commonly available in the operating room.
