Popis: Very long-chain acyl-coenzyme A dehydrogenase deficiency (VLCADD, OMIM 201475) is a congenital fatty acid oxidation disorder. Individuals with VLCADD should avoid catabolic states, including strenuous exercise and long-term fasting; however, such conditions are required when undergoing surgery. The perioperative management of VLCADD in infants has rarely been reported and details regarding the transition of serum biomarkers reflecting catabolic status have not been disclosed. Herein, we present the perioperative clinical and biological data of cryptorchidism in a 1.5-year-old boy with VLCADD. The patient was diagnosed through newborn screening and his clinical course was very stable. Genetic testing of ACADVL revealed compound heterozygous variants c.506 T > C (p.Met169Thr) and c.606-609delC (p.L216*). The enzyme activity of the patient with VLCAD was only 20% compared to that of healthy control. Left orchiopexy for the pediatric cryptorchidism was planned and performed at 1 and a half year of age. Induction anesthesia involved thiopental, fentanyl and rocuronium. The glucose infusion rate was maintained above 6.6 mg/kg/min starting the day before surgery until the operation was completed. Anesthesia was maintained with sevoflurane at approximately 2%. The serum concentration of tetradecenoylcarnitine were stable during the operation, ranging between 0.08 and 0.19 μM (cutoff
