Core Tip |
We describe two cases of adolescent Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) with typical characteristics, such as obesity, mental retardation, and scoliosis, in which respiratory failure with severe desaturation and hypercapnia occurred after scoliosis correction surgery. Respiratory failure was confirmed and diagnosed by polysomnography (PSG) and transcutaneous CO2 monitoring and successfully treated with overnight noninvasive ventilation. These cases highlight the need for objective respiratory tests and timely respiratory support through perioperative and periodic pulmonary check-ups in PWS patients with cognitive decline. Guidelines for full PSG studies, including CO2 monitoring, should be framed to detect hypoventilation within a certain time post-surgery for scoliosis. |
