Laryngeal mask

A laryngeal mask, comprising

• a head portion having a head distal end and a head proximal end, and a tube portion having a tube distal end and a tube proximal end opposite to the tube distal end, wherein the tube distal end of the tube portion is arranged on the head proximal end of the head portion, a channel is formed between a laryngeal opening of the head portion and the tube proximal end of the tube portion and the laryngeal opening is adapted for fitting onto a trachea,
• an annular cushion arranged on the head portion around the laryngeal opening, and
• a cover element at least partly encompassing the annular cushion and at least partly covering the laryngeal opening, characterized in that
• the cover element is made of a through-breathable material,
• the laryngeal mask further comprising a release element fixing the cover element to the head portion, wherein the release element has a first puller portion and the cover element has a second puller portion, the first puller portion and the second puller portion are pullable at the tube proximal end of the tube portion, and the release element is adapted for releasing the fixing of the cover element to the head portion in case the first puller portion of the release element is pulled at the tube proximal end of the tube portion, and
• the first puller portion and the second puller portion are configured so that in case of joint pulling of the first puller portion (48, 148) and the second puller portion at the tube proximal end of the tube portion, the fixing with the release element of the cover element to the head portion is releasable and thereby making the cover element removable.
