“…However, we were able to find only two case reports describing the use of combined (general and caudal) anesthesia in those patients.

On the other hand, successful use of caudal block with bupivacaine for bilateral herniorrhaphy in an infant with BdLS was reported by del Rio et al [19].…”

Spinal anesthesia in a child with Brachmann-de Lange (Cornelia de Lange) syndrome

Providing anesthesia to patients with Brachmann-de Lange syndrome (BdLS) may be challenging, mainly because of intubation difficulty, gastroesophageal reflux disease, and aspiration complications. The use of spinal anesthesia (SA) in this population has not been reported. We report the uneventful administration of awake SA to a 7-month-old girl with BdLS who was scheduled for rectal biopsy. The current literature is reviewed to discuss the indications for SA in those patients.
