AbstractPatients with glutaric aciduria type I are at risk for acute striatal injury precipitated by catabolic stress. Here, we report the successful interdisciplinary anesthetic and perioperative management of a child with glutaric aciduria type I undergoing cardiac surgery with extracorporeal circulation. Given the central focus on prevention of acute striatal injury, our anesthetic strategy emphasized avoiding a high protein load, high-dose inotropics, especially epinephrine (associated with impaired glucose utilization), deliberate hyperventilation, and other interventions associated with systemic inflammatory response.
