Turk J Anaesthesiol Reanim. 2023 Jun 16;51(3):275-277. doi: 10.4274/TJAR.2022.221038.

Abstract

Fryns syndrome cases with variable characteristics require careful preoperative evaluation and have challenges for airway management. Craniofacial anomalies can complicate both ventilation and intubation. Extubation can also be problematic because of limited pulmonary reserves.

Keywords: Airway management; Fryns syndrome; pediatric anaesthesia; perioperative care; regional anaesthesia.
