Hypersensitivity reaction probably induced by sugammadex
2012
Abstract We report here an intellectually compromised 7-year-old boy with cerebral palsy who developed a hypersensitivity reaction several minutes after the administration of sugammadex for subsequent extubation. He developed signs of upper airway stenosis and decreased oxygen saturation, as well as wheals on his neck, chest, and both upper extremities. He was successfully treated with immediate administration of adrenaline and hydrocortisone. A hypersensitivity reaction to sugammadex was suspected on the basis of the patient's clinical course.
