“…[67] MH is one of the clinical entities triggered by depolarising muscle relaxant suxamethonium and nearly all volatile anaesthetic agents. We therefore adopted TIVA technique with atracurium infusion for the aforementioned reasons.…”

Anaesthetic management in a child with an atypical triad for reconstructive scoliosis surgery

et al. 2013

Scoliosis may be of varied aetiology and may be associated with severe congenital anomalies. It often poses a challenge in its anaesthetic management. We present anaesthetic management of a child who underwent scoliosis reconstruction with a rare triad of cerebral palsy, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency and severe mitral regurgitation. Anaesthetic management in these patients should focus primarily on associated co-morbidities and congenital anomalies affecting the course of the perioperative management and thereafter comprehensive pre-operative strategies must be executed to enhance the safety profile during the surgery.

“…Distribution of weakness is typically proximal with prominent involvement of the hip girdle and also axial muscles although focal muscle wasting has also been reported in a few cases. [49] The most common orthopedic complications are congenital dislocation or subluxation of the hips [50][51][52] and (kypho)scoliosis, [53] as well as foot deformities including pes equinovarus and pes planus. Many patients have marked hypermobility of the joints, ligamentous laxity, occasionally associated with patellar instability, whereas contractures are rare.…”

Myotubular/centronuclear myopathy and central core disease

The term congenital myopathy is applied to muscle disorders presenting with generalized muscle weakness and hypotonia from early infancy with delayed developmental milestones. The congenital myopathies have been classified into various categories based on morphological findings on muscle biopsy. Although the clinical symptoms may seem homogenous, the genetic basis is remarkably variable. This review will focus on myotubular myopathy, centronuclear myopathy, central core disease, and congenital neuromuscular disease with uniform Type 1 fiber, myopathies that are subjects of our ongoing examinations.

We report the case of a 7-year-old boy with thoracolumbar scoliosis and central core disease who had a history of malignant hyperthermia. He had scoliosis with Cobb's angle deteriorating to 67 degrees (thoracic) and 59 degrees (lumbar). A provocation test of general anesthesia was performed to confirm no hyperthermic reaction. Then, he underwent surgical correction by a posterior approach. The thoracic curve was reduced to 38 degrees and the lumbar curve to 42 degrees . He has been followed up for 2 years without any complications. This is the first report with a detailed description of perioperative management on surgical treatment of scoliosis associated with central core disease.
