Article Synopsis
- Sjögren-Larsson syndrome is a rare genetic disorder that causes skin issues, muscle stiffness, intellectual disabilities, seizures, and eye problems, with patients often needing surgeries to manage symptoms as they age.
- The study aimed to review the clinical features of the syndrome, address specific anesthetic considerations, and offer recommendations for safe anesthesia management during surgeries.
- A review of 14 patients revealed various anesthetic techniques used, with no serious complications; however, the skin condition often made it difficult to properly secure monitoring devices and IV lines.
