A term baby was delivered by cesarean and found to have an unexpected large teratoma attached to its mouth. Surgical excision was planned within 24 hours. Anesthesia concern of airway control required multidisciplinary team consultation, airway and patient preparation, and anticipation for failure. Challenging airway cases in low-resource countries can be successfully managed with deliberate attention to detail, preparation, and experience.
