[Anesthetic Management of a Patient with Rett Syndrome Presenting Severe Breath Holding and Massive Aerophagia].
    Masui. The Japanese journal of anesthesiology, 2017, Volume: 66, Issue:2

    We anesthetized a patient with Rett syndrome pre- senting intense breath holdings and severe aerophagia for dental treatment The patient had shown an intense breath holding plunging into hypoxia during slow induction with sevoflurane in previous anesthesias. Therefore, we chose rapid sequence induction with intravenous propofol and rocuronium and intubated orally. The length of glottis to tracheal bifurcation was shorter than average patient After a gastric tube was inserted and the content was aspirated, the orotracheal tube was changed to nasotracheal one. When she recovered from anesthesia at the quite deep stage, her saliva poured from nose and orally and began severe aerophagia. Once again, deep depth of anesthesia was kept, and we minimized stimulations for her. By. this approach, anesthesia was achieved uneventfully. In this case, she had signs of early-awakening from anesthesia.

[Case of Rett syndrome monitored with BIS and neuromuscular monitor during total intravenous anesthesia].
    Masui. The Japanese journal of anesthesiology, 2011, Volume: 60, Issue:6

    We describe a case of 8-year-old female patient with Rett syndrome undergoing bilateral tonsillectomy and adenotomy. She was monitored with BIS and neuromuscular monitor using TOF during total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) with propofol, remifentanil, ketamine and rocuronium. A relatively high infusion rate of propofol (10 mg x kg x hr(-1)) was maintained to keep BIS between 60 and 70 during the surgical procedure, and rocuronium 10 mg IV was administered for tracheal intubation without its further administration during the surgical procedure. Although prolonged effects of anesthetics, analgesics and neuromuscular blockade were reported frequently, she took uneventful course during anesthesia and surgery. Her recovery from anesthesia and neuromuscular blockade was also smooth associated with satisfactory sedated states. BIS and neuromuscular monitor may be useful in TIVA for a patient with Rett syndrome.
