Malignant Hyperthermia
''Malignant Hypothermia'' syndrome is a rare, but dangerous occurrence, the aetiology of which is not known. Up to this date 180 cases have been reported. This syndrome i's seen generally in :male children over age of two years, and especially in adolescent males. Also those people with muscular abnormalities are more susciptable to this illnes'S. Anaesthetic agent such as halothane or muscular...
متن کاملGenetic heterogeneity and HOMOG analysis in British malignant hyperthermia families.
Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is an autosomal dominant genetic condition that presents in susceptible people undergoing general anaesthesia. The clinical disorder is a major cause of anaesthetic morbidity and mortality. The UK Malignant Hyperthermia Group has performed genetic linkage analysis on 20 large, well defined malignant hyperthermia families, using hypervariable markers on chromosome 19q...
متن کاملMalignant hyperthermia following rhinoplasty: a case report
Malignant hyperthermia is a rare and fatal disorder. A 16-year-old male patient was a candidate for rhinoplasty surgery with no history of disease and previous surgery, negative family history and no history of medication use in the operating room. Maintenance of anesthesia was performed with O2, NO2 (50% -50%) and MAC isoflurane 1. Gradually, from the 80th minute after the start of the operati...
متن کاملClinical treatment of malignant hyperthermia in three cases
Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a rare life threatening inherited disorder that is triggered by drugs used for general anesthesia in susceptible persons. The symptoms include rapid increase of body temperature and severe muscle contractions. The present study includes 3 cases of MH and highlights the timely identification of symptoms for rescuing the patient. In case I, a 7-year-old male child u...
متن کاملGenetic analysis with calcium-induced calcium release test in Japanese malignant hyperthermia susceptible (MHS) families.
Some genetic studies have shown a linkage between malignant hyperthermia susceptibility (MHS) and chromosome 19q or the skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor (RYR1) gene. Some types of MHS seem to be caused by an abnormality of calcium-induced calcium release (CICR). We analyzed the linkage of RYR1 gene polymorphisms in Japanese MHS families and investigated the correlation between genetic evidenc...
