Abstract EN
Malignant hyperthermia is a hypermetabolic response to inhalation agents (such as halothane, sevoflurane, and desflurane), succinylcholine, vigorous exercise, and heat.
Reactions develop more frequently in males than females (2 : 1).
The classical signs of malignant hyperthermia are hyperthermia, tachycardia, tachypnea, increased carbon dioxide production, increased oxygen consumption, acidosis, muscle rigidity and rhabdomyolysis.
In this case report, we present a case of delayed onset malignant hyperthermia-like reaction after the second exposure to sevoflurane.
