Core Tip |
A child undergoing scoliosis repair developed sudden bradycardia and hypotension, associated with loss of somatosensory and motor evoked potentials to all four limbs. Spinal shock and hypovolemia were diagnosed after ruling out other causes. Acute comp?lications of scoliosis repair are reviewed along with sympathetic nervous system anatomy. Spinal shock was likely due to hypovolemia and spinal cord manipulation during vertebral column resection that was needed to effect scoliosis correction. Treatment included volume expansion and inotropic support. Anesthesiologists should be mindful of the possibility of spinal shock during correction of severe scoliosis, particularly when vertebral column resection is undertaken. |
