Area of Science:

  • Anesthesiology
  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Medical Case Reports

Background:

  • Sprengel deformity and hemivertebrae are complex congenital conditions.
  • Fothergill surgery is indicated for specific spinal conditions.
  • Anesthetic considerations are crucial for patients with congenital anomalies.

Observation:

  • A 28-year-old female patient presented with Sprengel deformity and hemivertebrae.
  • Clinical examination revealed no nervous, renal, or cardiovascular anomalies.
  • The patient had a short neck and a modified Mallampati score of grade 2.

Findings:

  • Successful total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) was achieved using Propofol.
  • Premedication included Midazolam and Pentazocine.
  • The patient experienced an uneventful intraoperative and postoperative course.
