Congenital Central Hypoventilation Syndrome (CCHS, also known as Ondine's Curse) is a rare syndrome characterized by apnea, cyanosis, and hypotonia. A 4-year-old, 90-cm, 12-kg girl with CCHS, mental retardation (MR), and Hischsprung's disease (HD) was treated under general anesthesia. Intravenous drugs were not used, but sevoflurane, a volatile anesthetic, was used. As a result, the recovery time from the end of the operation to returning to the ward was very short, only 18 minutes. There was no trouble during the perioperative period. We safely performed general anesthesia and dental treatment for a girl who had CCHS with HD and MR. |
