A 62-year-old man was referred to our hospital presenting with a sore throat, dyspnea, and cervical swelling. Initial precontrast CT scans revealed a cervical and mediastinal hematoma, along with a hemothorax. Further dynamic contrast-enhanced CT scans indicated contrast media extravasation dorsal to the right thyroid gland lobe, suggesting a rupture of the right inferior thyroid artery or a parathyroid adenoma.

BACKGROUND Malignant hyperthermia (MH) and anesthesia-induced rhabdomyolysis (AIR) are rare, yet life-threatening complications that need prompt therapeutic actions and logistic preparedness for treatment success. Both conditions are triggered by general anesthetics, particularly volatiles and depolarizing muscle relaxants. In comparison with MH, which is an inherited pharmacogenomic disease of calcium channel receptor subpopulation and arises only after trigger exposure, AIR has been described mostly in patients with muscular dystrophies.

Article Synopsis
- Helicopter hoist operations (HHO) are crucial for conducting rescue missions in Germany's challenging mid-range mountain terrains, especially for outdoor sports-related injuries.
- A study analyzing HHO missions from 2020 to 2022 found 410 rescue cases, with 304 suitable for statistical analysis, revealing a peak in summer and on weekends with 75% of cases linked to trauma.
- The analysis indicated that many patients were in severe conditions requiring invasive treatments, and different air rescue bases employed varying tactics, affecting the efficiency of their missions.
