    AbstractWe describe a case of 8-year-old female patient with Rett syndrome undergoing bilateral tonsillectomy and adenotomy. She was monitored with BIS and neuromuscular monitor using TOF during total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) with propofol, remifentanil, ketamine and rocuronium. A relatively high infusion rate of propofol (10 mg x kg x hr(-1)) was maintained to keep BIS between 60 and 70 during the surgical procedure, and rocuronium 10 mg IV was administered for tracheal intubation without its further administration during the surgical procedure. Although prolonged effects of anesthetics, analgesics and neuromuscular blockade were reported frequently, she took uneventful course during anesthesia and surgery. Her recovery from anesthesia and neuromuscular blockade was also smooth associated with satisfactory sedated states. BIS and neuromuscular monitor may be useful in TIVA for a patient with Rett syndrome.
