    AbstractThis course explores the considerations that the anesthesia provider has to be aware of, when caring for a patient with a mitochondrial myopathy. Even though these disorders are rare, these patients may also need surgical care, requiring that the anesthesia provider be informed of the best anesthesia options to consider. A narrative review of documented cases and their outcomes is used to generate a resource of current opinions in the anesthetic care of this patient population.
