VALDES TORRES, Alejandro et al. Anesthetic Management for a pregnant woman with Morquio syndrome. Rev cuba anestesiol reanim [online]. 2022, vol.21, n.2  Epub 20-Jun-2022. ISSN 1726-6718.

Introduction:

Morquio syndrome is an autosomal recessive hereditary disease that affects, to different extents, carbohydrate metabolism, which obstructs the ability to break bonds of long chains of glycosaminoglycans, causing mucopolysaccharides accumulation in different tissues of the human body.

Objective:

To describe the anesthetic management of a pregnant woman with Morquio syndrome.

Case presentation:

This is the case of a 30-year-old primigravid pregnant woman, of black skin, 103 cm of height and 33 kg of weight. She came for preoperative consultation because she was pregnant at term and had low body size; the pregnancy was terminated through the abdominal route. A preanesthetic assessment was performed, which permitted to observe a history of genetic disease and previous admission for high blood pressure. The patient was allergic to dipyrone.

Conclusions:

Among patients with mucopolysaccharidosis, there is a high incidence of difficulty for ventilation and endotracheal intubation associated with cardiopulmonary insufficiency. Spinal involvement represents additional difficulties for anesthesiologists. Any elective surgery requires preoperative assessment of anesthesiologic risk factors and the availability of a spectrum of airway management equipment. Anesthetic managment should be performed by a team experienced in airway management.

Palavras-chave : mucopolysaccharidosis IV; general anesthesia; airway management.
