To the best of our knowledge, this is the first such report. Case presentation A 14-year-old boy was scheduled to undergo dental treatment under general anesthesia because of his mental disorder. He had congenital atrial and ventricular septal defects and patent ductus arteriosus, which had been repaired previously. Therefore, we anticipated no problems with his cardiovascular system during the perioperative period. Because the sedation administered before the insertion of an intravenous catheter and arterial line was insufficient to induce an anesthetic effect, general anesthesia was induced by using a mixture of sevoflurane (5 %) with oxygen in nitrous oxide. A few minutes after the induction of anesthesia, the patient unexpectedly experienced bradycardia (heart rate |
