Peripheral Nerve Blockade in a Patient with Mastocytosis
نویسندگان
چکیده
Mastocytosis is a rare group of disorders with chronic and episodic mast cell release of mediators which can have systemic and cutaneous manifestations. Triggers of anaphylaxis include commonly used medications for anesthesia, analgesia, and muscle relaxation. There is little in the literature regarding local anesthesia in emergent surgery for patients with mastocytosis. This case details the use of a peripheral nerve blockade for multiple surgeries and pain control in a patient with biopsy-proven mastocytosis.

Postoperative analgesia for hemorrhoidectomy with bilateral pudendal blockade on an ambulatory patient: a controlled clinical study
Background and objectives: Reducing postoperative pain in hemorrhoidectomy is still a challenge. This prospective, randomized, double-blind study was conducted to compare bilateral pudendal blockade with peripheral nerve stimulator to relieve postoperative pain with the method commonly used. Method: 200 patients scheduled for hemorrhoidectomy were randomly divided into Control Group and Pudenda...

Klippel-Trénaunay syndrome is a rare congenital condition that rarely affects peripheral nerves. Median nerve involvement at carpal tunnel level has only been reported in a few occasions in the medial literature. A 61 years old Caucasian female patient with Klippel-Trénaunay syndrome presented with a 10 months history of paraesthesiae and numbness affecting the median nerve distribution area...
متن کاملDebilitating Bilateral Fibrosing Lumbar Plexopathy in a Patient with Systemic Sclerosis Sine Scleroderma
Systemic sclerosis is an autoimmune fibrotic disease which only rarely affects peripheral nerves. When it occurs, nerve damage is usually mediated by entrapment or small vessel vasculitis. Here we report the first case of bilateral lumbar fibrosing plexopathy in a patient with SSc sine scleroderma, an unusual form of SSc. Neurological symptoms were controlled with high dose prednisone and cyclo...
متن کاملUltrasound guidance reduces the risk of local anesthetic systemic toxicity following peripheral nerve blockade.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Local anesthetic systemic toxicity (LAST) is a potentially life-threatening complication of local anesthetic administration. In this article, the results of the Australian and New Zealand Registry of Regional Anaesthesia were analyzed to determine if ultrasound-guided peripheral nerve blockade (PNB) was associated with a reduced risk of LAST compared with techniques no...
