description Bonfil's rigid fibroscope is an instrument used to perform tracheal intubation, proven to be effective both in patients with normal and in those with difficult airways.

Also, we describe our technique of insertion of Bonfil's retromolar fibroscope from the right side of the mouth across the tongue.
