- Abstract
The article presents a case study of a 17-year-old patient with genetically proven Prader-Willi syndrome who had left middle cerebral artery-left superficial temporal artery anastomosis surgery under general anesthesia with a non-depolarizing muscle relaxant. It states that despite the patient had hypotonia, anesthesia was successfully used with a dose adjusted muscle relaxant using the TOF watch instrument.
