Özet
Keratoconus is a common disease in which the central or paracentral cornea undergoes progressive thinning, resulting in a cone-shaped cornea. It has been associated with many systemic disorders such as Down syndrome, osteogenesis imperfecta, and joint hypermobility. Herein, temporomandibular joint dislocation under general anesthesia during supraglottic airway device placement before deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty procedure in a keratoconus patient is reported.
