Abstract

Apert syndrome involves abnormal growth of several bones such as craniofacial abnormalities, craniosynostosis and syndactyly of the feet and hands. Apert syndrome often demonstrates to the operating room for craniofacial and extremity operations.Previous reports reveal that children with Apert syndrome suffered difficulties in mask ventilation and difficult airway management during anesthetic management.We report our experience with anesthesia of a 26-month-old female patient with Apert syndrome who underwent syndactyly for separation.
