    AbstractA 36-year-old African American with a medical history of nonanesthesia-related malignant hyperthermia (MH) who was taking chronic oral dantrolene therapy presented with right upper quadrant pain for a laparoscopic cholecystectomy. A multidisciplinary perioperative plan was implemented with the goal of avoiding triggering an MH episode or rhabdomyolysis. He developed a postoperative left brachial vein thrombus of unclear etiology, possibly related to dantrolene administration or his underlying susceptibility to MH.
