Malignant hyperthermia resolving with discontinuation of sevoflurane alone
An otherwise healthy 13 year old developed hypercarbia and increased temperature during anesthesia with sevoflurane. Discontinuation of sevoflurane, surface cooling, and hyperventilation resulted in prompt resolution.

Malignant hyperthermia: patient undergoing limb debridement surgery—a case report [PDF]
Background Malignant hyperthermia is a rare but potentially fatal clinical emergency, primarily triggered by inhaled volatile anesthetics. It is associated with inherited autosomal-dominant skeletal muscle disorders and typically caused by mutations in ...
