Abstract
A 25 year old female, known case of Turner's syndrome was posted for elective Radical Modified Mastoidectomy. Patient had tachycardia, high BP and ECG changes along with all signs and symptoms of Turner's syndrome. During surgery, the aims of anaesthetist were: 1.) To maintain hemodynamic stability, 2.) To provide optimum analgesia intraoperatively and post operatively and 3.) To maintain Peak Airway Pressure within normal limits. Patient was managed intra-operatively by monitoring vitals and maintaining airway pressures. Also airway was secured with blockbuster LMA in order to minimize haemodynamic fluctuations. Surgery was well managed and lasted for 3.5 hours. Patient was managed well intraoperatively with newer supraglottic device and all parameters were served. Patient was smoothly extubated and shifted to recovery with Aldrete score 8 out of 10. Thus, surgery was managed well both intraoperatively and postoperatively and also throughout surgery, patient remained stable. Use of LMA blockbuster was found to be useful and effective in such case for securing airway.
