    Abstract:
    A neonate with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency and Arnold-Chiari Malformation (ACM) type 2 underwent lumbar meningomyelocele (MMC) repair. Patients with G6PD deficiency are prone to develop haemolysis following any kind of oxidative stress and in ACM, there is a disturbed cranio-spinal pressure relationship. The neonate was managed under general anaesthesia with propofol for induction as well as for maintenance along with fentanyl and oxygen-nitrous mixture.
