Abstract:
An 18-year-old man underwent emergency craniotomy for acute epidural hematoma under general anesthesia using suxamethonium and isoflurane. Marked rises in end-tidal carbon dioxide, body temperature, and serum potassium occurred during the surgery. After intravenous dantrolene sodium administration, the body temperature dropped rapidly. No conspicuous postoperative elevation of serum creatine kinase levels were observed. Postoperative muscle biopsy specimen revealed increased calcium-induced calcium release.
