Anesthetic management of syndactyly operation for a patient with apert syndrome: A case report

Apert syndrome is autosomal dominant disease characterized by multiple craniofacial and limb deformities like syndactyly of feet and hands. There are many factors that challenging for anesthesiologists. In our case, a patient who has Apert syndrome came for syndactyly operation. We aim to highlight anesthetic considerations for Apert syndrome and how to maintain anesthesia during the operation.

A and B preaxial polydactyly with syndactyly of feet and hands in the same person — a case report

Preaxial polydactyly of the hand is more common than postaxial polydactyly and postaxial polydactyly of the foot is more common than preaxial in white patients. Syndactyly is commonly regarded as next in frequency among the congenital hand deformities. Preaxial polydactyly of the feet and hands and polydactyly type A and B with syndactyly in the same individual is a rare condition. In this work we present this rare disorder in male infant. The physical and X-ray examinations showed preaxial polydactyly type A of both hands and A and B polydactyly with syndactyly of feet.

Endocardial Implantation of a Cardioverter-Defibrillator in a 13-Month-Old Child Affected by Long-QT Syndrome and Syndactyly

A 13-month-old child with the uncommon variant of long-QT syndrome associated with syndactyly of feet and hands experienced an apparently life-threatening event during full-dose β-blocker therapy. The indication for an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) was established, and the patient was admitted to the hospital. The QTc interval was 580 ms, and no mutations were present in any of the known LQTS genes. The child weighed 11.9 kg with a length of 76 cm. To minimize the surgical injury and reduce the potential risk …
