ABSTRACT

Loeys-Dietz syndrome (LDS) is a connective tissue disease related to ß-transforming growth factor mutations, which causes aneurysms formation, vascular tortuosity and skeletal manifestations. The prognosis is very poor, and mortality occurs at the age of 27 in patients without surgical treatment. Despite being diagnosed in childhood, is not usual surgical aortic replacement in children. We report a case of 12 years old child with LDS and multiple aneurysms in thoracic aorta, undergoing complete aortic arch replacement and our proposal for the anesthetic management, due to surgical complexity and implications in pediatric population.


El síndrome de Loeys-Dietz (SDL) es una enfermedad del tejido conectivo debida a mutaciones del factor de crecimiento transformador beta que provocan formación de aneurismas, malformaciones vasculares y esqueléticas. Tiene mal pronóstico y el fallecimiento sobreviene de media a los 27 años sin tratamiento quirúrgico. A pesar de diagnosticarse en la infancia, es infrecuente la cirugía en niños. Presentamos el caso de una niña de 12 años con SDL y aneurisma múltiple en aorta torácica, programada para recambio completo de arco aórtico, proponiendo estrategias para el manejo anestésico, dada la complejidad y las implicaciones de esta cirugía en la población pediátrica.
