Successful Management of a Patient With X-Linked Myotubular Myopathy for Scoliosis Surgery and Previous Cardiac Arrest After Prone Positioning: A Case Report
A 15-year-old boy with X-linked myotubular myopathy associated with severe hypotonia and pectus excavatum presented for posterior spinal fusion of T2-sacrum because of rest pain and severe progressive neuromuscular scoliosis. Previously, he experienced 2 separate instances of cardiac arrest after prone positioning under general anesthesia. A preoperative computed topography angiogram in the supine and prone positions revealed inferior vena cava and right ventricular outflow tract obstruction on prone positioning. Successful positioning and posterior spinal fusion occurred by staging the procedure, correction of volume stat...

The kalaemic and neuromuscular effects of succinylcholine in centronuclear myopathy: A pilot investigation in a canine model
We examined the kalaemic and neuromuscular effects of succinylcholine in dogs with and without autosomal-recessive CNM. DESIGN: A prospective, experimental study. SETTING: Anaesthesiology laboratory, College of Veterinary Medicine, Cornell University, New York, USA. PATIENTS: Six dogs with autosomal-recessive CNM and six control dogs. INTERVENTIONS: Dogs received succinylcholine 0.3 mg kg−1 during isoflurane anaesthesia. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Whole blood potassium concentration was measured 5 min before and after succinylcholine administration. Neuromuscular function was measured with acceleromyography and single ...

STAC3 related congenital myopathy: A case series of seven Comorian patients
Eur J Med Genet. 2022 Aug 24:104598. doi: 10.1016/j.ejmg.2022.104598. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe Bailey-Bloch congenital myopathy, also known as Native American myopathy (NAM), is an autosomal recessive congenital myopathy first reported in the Lumbee tribe people settled in North Carolina (USA), and characterized by congenital weakness and arthrogryposis, cleft palate, ptosis, short stature, kyphoscoliosis, talipes deformities, and susceptibility to malignant hyperthermia (MH) triggered by anesthesia. NAM is linked to STAC3 gene coding for a component of excitation-contraction coupling in skeletal muscles. A homozy...

Undiagnosed myopathy before surgery and safe anaesthesia table.
Authors: Trevisan CP, Accorsi A, Morandi LO, Mongini T, Savoia G, Gravino E, Angelini C, Tegazzin V Abstract Patients with muscle pathology are a challenge for anaesthesiologists because of possible life-threatening general anaesthesia complications. A review of the current medical literature on the issue clearly indicates that increasing awareness by anaesthesiologists in recent years has led to a reduction in the occurrence of adverse events in patients with diagnostically well-defined muscle disease. On the other hand, the current emerging aspect is that the great majority of complications concern subjects with ...

Genes, Vol. 13, Pages 1726: Gene Panel Sequencing Identifies a Novel RYR1 p.Ser2300Pro Variant as Candidate for Malignant Hyperthermia with Multi-Minicore Myopathy
We report a Korean having MH with multi-minicore myopathy functionally supported by RYR1-mediated intracellular Ca2+ release testing in B lymphocytes. A 14-year-old boy was admitted for the evaluation of progressive torticollis accompanied by cervicothoracic scoliosis. During the preoperative drape of the patient for the release of the sternocleidomastoid muscle under general anesthesia, his wrist and ankle were observed to have severe flexion contracture. The body temperature was 37.1 °C. To treat MH, the patient was administered a bolus of dantrolene intravenously (1.5 mg/kg) and sodium bicarbonate. After a f...

Postanesthetic Neuropathy/Myopathy in the Nondependent Forelimb in 4 Horses
Abstract: Postanesthetic lameness in the form of myopathy or neuropathy is a well-known complication associated with equine general anesthesia and is most often reported in the dependent limb of horses treated in lateral recumbency. The aim of this case series was to report clinical data of 4 horses treated under general anesthesia in lateral recumbency and that developed postanesthetic neuropathy/myopathy in the nondependent forelimb. With anti-inflammatory and analgesic medical treatment, locomotor problems associated with neuropathy/myopathy resolved after 12–24 hours in all cases. The pathogenesis remains unclear. A ...

G.P.8: Dramatic improvement after injection augmentation in oculopharyngodistal myopathy
We examined the patient, and performed all the tests during preoperative and postoperative 1st week, 1st month and 3rd month visits. No complications occurred during or after the procedure. The method was very successful in that aspirations stopped immediately after the injection, the voice became less hoarse and speech was more understandable. Augmentation was more effective for aspiration than for voice quality. Oculopharyngodistal myopathy is a non-curable genetic disease which threatens life due to respiratory insufficiency even in ambulatory patients. Application of vocal cord injection augmentation can be a promising...

Anesthetic considerations in myofibrillar myopathy.
This study is the first report of anesthetic management of a patient with MFM. We report multiple anesthetic encounters of a child with genetically confirmed BAG3-myopathy, a subtype of MFM with severe childhood disease onset. A review of the anesthetic implications of the disease is provided, with specific exploration of possible susceptibility to malignant hyperthermia, rhabdomyolysis, and sensitivity to other anesthetic agents.

Tenotomy of the semitendinosus muscle under standing sedation versus general anesthesia: outcomes in 20 horses with fibrotic myopathy
ConclusionTenotomy of the semitendinosus muscle in horses with fibrotic myopathy leads to similar improvement in gait, whether performed under standing sedation or general anesthesia.

Rocuronium and sugammadex use for the management of neuromuscular blockade in urgent abdominal surgery in a patient with Landouzy-Dejerine myopathy.
We report dose reduction to 0.8mg/kg for a 47-year-old female with Landouzy-Dejerine myopathy. Therefore, less dose of sugammadex was given to reverse the neuromuscular block. PMID: 25307303 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
