Anesthetic Management of Robotic Thymectomy in a Patient With Morvan Syndrome: A Case Report

We describe the successful administration of general anesthesia for robotic thymectomy to an MvS patient with severe encephalopathy, cardiac dysautonomia, and peripheral nerve hyperexcitation. Importantly, thymus removal provided effective source control with eventual resolution of MvS symptoms. MvS is briefly reviewed and novel observations are described of related interactions between nondepolarizing neuromuscular blockade (NDNMB) and bispectral index (BIS).
