The cervical ultrasound exploration will consist in the ultrasound measurement of the length between the hyoid bone and the skin and the length between the thyroid cartilage and the skin. The ultrasound cervical exploration will be performed in all patients admitted in the postoperative room after a planned surgery performed under general anesthesia.
