AbstractThere are two types of patients that commonly lead surgeons and anesthesiologists into discussions relating to the possible cancellation or postponement of a minor pediatric surgical procedure; the child with a recent upper respiratory infection, and the patient who was born prematurely. Current opinion of the risks of anesthesia in such patients and the factors that influence perioperative course are reviewed, and a plan of management is suggested.
