[Anesthetic management of a patient with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis].
Masui. the Japanese Journal of Anesthesiology 2000 Februrary
A 49-year-old male with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) was scheduled for gastrectomy. Anesthetic management was performed under general anesthesia with sevoflurane and epidural anesthesia with lidocaine. He showed increased response to vecuronium under monitoring of neuromuscular block. But he responded favorably to anticholineesterase. He had little pain and showed no progress in neurological symptoms in the postoperative period. Neuromuscular monitoring is essential in administrating non-depolarizing neuromuscular blocking agents to patients with ALS, and epidural anesthesia may be useful for perioperative management of patients with ALS.
