Description
Anesthesia for a child born with stiff, fixed joints demands extra planning, as Sivalakshmi Ramesh and colleagues illustrate in a 2026 case report. The condition, arthrogryposis multiplex congenita, can distort the airway and face, disturb temperature control, and raise fears of malignant hyperthermia.
Their patient was a 10-year-old boy with a recessed jaw who needed corrective leg surgery and had overheated during a past operation. On top of standard checks, the team used entropy readings for sleep depth, a device tracking muscle relaxants, and an arterial line. Drugs were given by target-controlled infusion, the airway was secured with a video scope, and a caudal block supplied pain relief. Sugammadex brought full muscle recovery before he woke, and his recovery was smooth.
