  • Title: Anesthesia for maxillary and mandibular osteotomies in osteogenesis imperfecta.
    Author: Rodrigo C.
    Journal: Anesth Prog; 1995; 42(1):17-20. PubMed ID: 8934957.
    Abstract:
    A 21-yr-old female suffering from osteogenesis imperfecta was anesthetized for correction of maxillary and mandibular deformities that had restricted her chewing. Preoperative assessment revealed a difficult intubation, restrictive lung disease secondary to bony deformities, and multiple repairs of fractures. Management of anesthesia for this operation--which is very rarely carried out in this disorder--is described along with a review of the problems of anesthesia associated with osteogenesis imperfecta.
