AbstractSotos syndrome is a rare condition characterized by typical facies, early accelerated growth, large body size, developmental delay and congenital heart defects. Reports of anaesthetic management of these children are very rare. We report a case of general anaesthesia in a 2(1/2)-year-old boy with this condition, undergoing inguinal hernia repair. The child had a marked developmental delay, hypotonia and mitral regurgitation. The key points in the management of anaesthesia in Sotos syndrome are discussed.
