Abstract
Children with neck abscesses may present in an emergency setting thus catching the physician off guard, wherein the management would depend primarily on the anesthesiologist's experience and available resources. We wish to report the anaesthetic management of an eighteen month old child with submandibular abscess who was scheduled for incision and drainage in emergency.
