Abstract
The mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS) are hereditary disorders. Children with these disorders have multisystem disease and present significant challenges for the anesthesiologist. The establishment and maintenance of an adequate airway represents the most commonly encountered anesthesia-related problem in these patients. We report ten children with MPS who required surgical intervention. One patient died and the others had a good outcome. In this report, we share our experience and discuss the anesthetic risks and management of MPS patients.Entities:
