Abstract
Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the axial skeleton and peripheral joints. Its main characteristic is the fusion of vertebral bones, which leads to loss of flexibility of the back and neck. Who present the most challenging regional anesthesia and airway management for the anesthesiologists. We report a case of patient admitted for total hip replacement under général anesthésia by fiberoptic bronchoscope. The objective of this study is to discuss the various general and locoregionale anesthetic techniques.
