Airway Management of Type-III Arnold Chiari Malformation: An Anaesthetic Challenge.

Arnold Chiari malformation (ACM) is defined as protrusion of the meninges and brain components into a congenital defect in the cranium or in the vertebral column. It was originally described by Austrian pathologist Hans Chiari. Among the four types, type-III ACM is the rarest and may associate with encephalocele.

Inhalational Induction: A Safe Anaesthetic Management in a Patient with Crouzon Syndrome.

Crouzon syndrome is a rare genetic disorder involving craniofacial skeleton development. It's characterized by a triad of cranial deformities: premature craniosynostosis, facial anomalies (mid-facial hypoplasia), and exophthalmia. The anaesthetic management challenges include the presence of a difficult airway, history of obstructive sleep apnea, congenital cardiac disorders, hypothermia, blood loss, and venous air embolism.
