ABSTRACT
A 35-year old woman was scheduled to undergo a total hystectomy due to uterine myoma. She had been diagnosed with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease 2 years ago. In addition, she had previously received a Cesarean section under epidural anesthesia 10 years ago and reported a prolonged motor blockade at that time. General anesthesia was induced with propofol 120 mg in a divided dose and the intubating condition was achieved with vecuronium 3 mg. Anesthesia was maintained with 1.5-2.5% enflurane with air and O2. During surgery, the body temperature and end tidal concentration of CO2 were maintained within the normal range. Despite the continuous monitoring of the train-of-four (TOF) response, no more muscle relaxants were required during surgery and the patient recovered without a delay in awakening. In the management of patients with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, it is desirable to evaluate the patient carefully, select the appropriate anesthetics and adjust the dosage of the drug according to the patients requirements.
