Abstract

The orotracheal intubation of rabbits is complicated by their oropharyngeal anatomy. Numerous techniques to intubate rabbits have been described; however, these methods require specialized devices, tracheostomy, or are performed in a blind fashion. We describe a technique for the intubation of the rabbit under direct visualization with a standard, small-bore, fibre-optic laparoscope, which is both rapid and simple to perform.
