Journal Title: HASEKİ TIP BÜLTENİ - Year 2018, Vol 56, Issue 2
Abstract
Apert syndrome is an autosomal dominant inherited mandibulofacial dysostosis characterized by craniosynostosis, syndactyly, high forehead, broad nose, maxillary hypoplasia, synostosis of cervical vertebrae, organ malformations, and mental retardation. It is rarely encountered and as there is little knowledge of the anesthesia practice for this syndrome in the literature, we present our anesthesia experience of a case undergoing bilateral syndactyly surgery.
