Anesthetic considerations in a parturient with Freeman-Sheldon syndrome
Freeman-Sheldon Syndrome (FSS) also known as cranio-carpal-tarsal dysplasia, Windmill-Vane-Hand syndrome, distal arthrogryposis type 2 and whistling face syndrome, is a rare congenital myopathy disorder.1 First reported in 1938, it is described by facial and skeletal abnormalities, the most common being microstomia with pouting lips, campodactyly, ulnar deviation of the fingers and talipes equinovarus.2 Facial characteristics include micrognathia, microglossia, high arched palate, vertical skin folds in the jaw and ‘mask-like’ facies.

The Role of Therapeutic Drugs on Acquired Mitochondrial Toxicity.
Abstract
Certain therapeutic drugs used in medical practice may trigger mitochondrial toxicity leading to a wide range of clinical symptoms including deafness, neuropathy, myopathy, hyperlactatemia, lactic acidosis, pancreatitis and lipodystrophy, among others, which could even compromise the life of the patient. The aim of this work is to review the potential mitochondrial toxicity derived from drugs used in health care, including anesthetics, antiepileptics, neuroleptics, antidepressants, antivirals, antibiotics, antifungals, antimalarics, antineoplastics, antidiabetics, hypolipemiants, antiarrhythmics, anti-inf...

Anesthetic considerations in a parturient with Freeman–Sheldon syndrome
Freeman–Sheldon syndrome (FSS) also known as cranio-carpal-tarsal dysplasia, Windmill-Vane-Hand syndrome, distal arthrogryposis type 2 and whistling face syndrome, is a rare congenital myopathy disorder.1 First reported in 1938, it is described by facial and skeletal abnormalities, the most common being microstomia with pouting lips, camptodactyly, ulnar deviation of the fingers and talipes equinovarus.2 Facial characteristics include micrognathia, microglossia, high arched palate, vertical skin folds in the jaw and ‘mask-like’ facies.

Anaesthetic management of a patient with Pompe disease for kyphoscoliosis correction
Vaishali Kumbar, Jayashree Simha, Parameswara GundappaIndian Journal of Anaesthesia 2016 60(5):349-351Pompe disease (PD) is a type II glycogen storage disease, characterised by abnormal glycogen deposition, mainly in heart and skeletal muscles, leading to progressive loss of muscle function. The infantile variety is associated with severe hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and generally do not reach adulthood. The juvenile variety presents with progressive muscle weakness and respiratory failure. Anaesthetic management concerns in the patient reported here were mainly due to respiratory failure, myopathy and sensitivity to muscle...

The Efficacy of Two Oxygen Therapy Devices (Nasal Cannula vs. Simple Mask) for Preventing Hypoxemia after General Anesthesia: A Randomized Controlled Non-Inferiority Trial of 500 Patients.
CONCLUSION: In low risk patients undergoing low risk operations, both nasal cannula or simple mask with FiO₂ = 0.35 are equally effective for preventing hypoxemia in PACU.

Repeated nonanesthetic malignant hyperthermia reactions in a child
Summary
A series of life‐threatening nonanesthetic‐related MH reactions in a child was the inspiration for a proactive, novel solution allowing for early prehospital, potentially lifesaving intravenous dantrolene administration. Multidisciplinary collaboration is essential and parent education must be comprehensive and ongoing. This case underlines the importance of considering nonanesthetic MH susceptibility in the child who has a history of unspecified myopathy and who presents with fever and total body stiffness.

Ryanodine receptor type 3 (RYR3) as a novel gene associated with nemaline myopathy and fibre type disproportion
The ryanodine receptors (RyRs) are intracellular calcium channels with a central role in Ca2+ homeostasis. More than 300 mutations in RYR1 have been associated with a group of congenital myopathies and anaesthesia-related malignant hyperthermia. Mutations in RYR2 have been associated with cardiomyopathies. So far no disease has been associated with RYR3 mutations. The patient is a 22-year-old female, with healthy parents of Iranian descent and one healthy sister. The first signs of muscle weakness were observed at the age of 5 years, when she ran, climbed stairs and rose from the floor with difficulties.

Atypical reaction to anesthesia in Duchenne/Becker muscular dystrophy.
CONCLUSION: On preanesthetic assessment, the history of delayed motor development, as well as clinical and/or laboratory signs of myopathy, should encourage neurological evaluation, aiming at diagnosing subclinical myopathies and planning the necessary care to prevent anesthetic complications. Duchenne/Becker muscular dystrophy, although it does not increase susceptibility to MH, may lead to atypical fatal reactions in anesthesia.
