 A morbidly obese 24-year-old man with a history of severe mental retardation suffered asphyxia due to cervical cellulitis caused by gas-producing bacteria. He received invasive emergency airway maintenance. When alert, the patient's severe psychological state impeded airway maintenance using tools such as tracheal cannula, and tracheotomy could not be performed because of extremely thick subcutaneous tissue caused by morbid obesity and cellulitis. Out of necessity, the airway was secured by performing cricothyroidotomy and keeping the wound open with absorbable sutures. As a result, the subject could return to his former life without any complications.
