“…Nöromuskuler bloker, hem extremite cerrahisi olup LMA uygulayacağımız için, hem de miyopatili hastalarda artmış sensitivite oluşturabileceği için kullanılmadı. Mitokondrial miyopatisi olan bir olguda, benzer şekilde nöromuskuler bloker kullanılmadan güvenli anestezi yönetimi sağlanıldığı bildirilmiştir (7). Mitokondrial miyopatili hastalar, nöromuskuler gevşeticilere daha sensitif olduğu için, nöromuskuler blokaj mutlaka monitorize edilmeli yada blokajdan kaçınılması gerekir (8,9).…”

A & A Case Reports

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

We report the case of a 59-year-old woman with mitochondrial myopathy who underwent elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy and hemorrhoidectomy, and we review the literature discussing general anesthesia for adults with mitochondrial myopathy. Our management technique avoids neuromuscular-blocking drugs and uses a modified awake intubation method not previously described in such patients. We hope to improve patient safety by discussing evidence-based anesthetic concerns and complications specific to these uncommon patients and aid practitioners in devising a suitable anesthetic plan.
