BBILMA was left inside the endotracheal tube even after extubation in the LT group. Mask airway was removed once the intubation was done in the ET group. Postoperative sore throat, cough, hoarseness, leak pressure, and hemodynamics were noted up to 48 hours in both the groups.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Both groups showed comparable demographics and extubation characteristics.
