Xenon anaesthesia in a patient with susceptibility to malignant hyperthermia: A case report.
A case report describing the first-reported, successful and safe use of Xenon-based anesthesia in an MH-susceptible 31 year old male.
The authors conclude that this case, along with previous investigation of Xe in susceptible-swine animal models and in vitro human muscle biopsy testing, show that Xenon is likely safe for use in MH-susceptible individuals.
