متن کاملAnaesthetic management of a patient with Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy.
Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy is a rare form of muscular dystrophy associated with cardiac implications such as cardiomyopathy and arrhythmias leading to sudden death. We describe the anesthetic management of a patient with Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy who presented for orthopaedic surgery and discuss the disorder and its potential anaesthetic implications.
