Author ProfileAbstract
Pediatric patients undergoing chemotherapy may present upper airway
obstruction due to severe oral mucositis. Although reversible, its
clinical course correlates with the course of neutropenia and may be
complicated. Thus, airway management in these patients must be
determined on an individual case basis.14 Mar 2021Submitted to Clinical Case Reports 15 Mar 2021Submission Checks Completed
