Abstract
It is known that the duration of rocuronium action can be prolonged in elderly patients and that such action shows important interindividual variability. We report a case of prolonged neuromuscular block lasting 11 h, in a woman subjected to kidney transplantation. The possible causes of such prolonged action, inherent to the drug, or related to external factors, are commented.Entities:
