RESUMO
Early clinical recognition, confirmed by blood gases analysis has permitted successfull management of a case of severe malignant hyperthermia. The authors stress the crucial importance for the theatres area to be fitted up with a huge crushed ice making device and with a large supply of cold saline solution. Due to the lack of easy and reliable preoperative screening test it is mandatory to put high risk patients on Dantrolene therapy when elective surgery is planned.
