Abstract
A case of palatal perforation occurring in 7-year-old girl with IDDM due to nasotracheal intubation is reported. The child, who was not previously diagnosed of IDDM, was brought to hospital in comatose stage and was put on nasotracheal tube for maintaining respiration. This paper highlights the link between IDDM and palatal perforation communicating the nasal cavity due to naso-tracheal intubation.Keywords
