Sertraline-induced pseudocholinesterase enzyme deficiency
A 47-year-old Turkish male was scheduled for laparoscopic cholecystectomy under general anesthesia. The patient had 2 operations 28 and 19 years ago under general anesthesia. It was learned that the patient was administered succinylcholine during both of these previous operations and that he did not have a history of prolonged recovery or postoperative apnea. The patient had been using sertrali...
متن کاملPseudocholinesterase deficiency: a comprehensive review of genetic, acquired, and drug influences.
Pseudocholinesterase deficiency is an inherited or acquired condition in which the metabolism of succinylcholine, mivacurium, or ester local anesthetics is potentially impaired. In this review, genetic inheritance, variants, and testing are examined. Additionally, acquired conditions and drugs that influence enzyme activity, as well as possible treatments of the condition, are reviewed. The rev...
متن کاملPseudocholinesterase Deficiency: A Case Report and Literature Review
A 72-year-old male underwent neck dissection and parotidectomy with facial nerve preservation. Endotracheal intubation was facilitated with succinylcholine. Prolonged muscle paralysis which was first detected after failure to stimulate the facial nerve with electrocautery, lasted five hours. Laboratory tests indicated pseudocholinesterase (PChE) deficiency. A thyroidectomy one month later was p...
متن کاملSerum atypical pseudocholinesterase and genetic factors in leprosy.
The levels of pseudocholinesterase and its nature were studied in 390 leprosy patients and 343 control subjects. The levels of the enzyme in both leprosy patients and normal controls were comparable. The study of the nature of the enzyme by determining its dibucaine number showed that a statistically significant number of lepromatous patients had the atypical variety of the enzyme compared with...
متن کاملCharacterization of the porphobilinogen deaminase deficiency in acute intermittent porphyria. Immunologic evidence for heterogeneity of the genetic defect.
The molecular pathology of the porphobilinogen (PBG)-deaminase deficiency in heterozygotes for acute intermittent porphyria (AIP) was investigated by means of biochemical and immunologic techniques. The stable enzyme-substrate intermediates (A, B, C, D, and E) of PBG-deaminase were separated by anion-exchange chromatography of erythrocyte lysates from heterozygotes for AIP and normal individual...
