Anesthetic care and perioperative complications in children with Sanfilipo Syndrome Type A.
Patients with mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS) are generally considered high risk for anesthesia care, owing to disease-related factors. Sanfilippo syndrome type A (MPS IIIA) is the most frequently occurring MPS. Anesthesia-specific information for MPS IIIA is not readily available in the literature. ⋯ We found no change in the modified Cormack-Lehane intubation grades in 25 Sanfilippo syndrome type A children over the 2-year study period.
