Abstract
The Authors, after a brief review of malignant hyperthermia (MH), describe the use of NLA a Harrington's surgical procedure in a malignant hyperthermia susceptible (MHS) patient. Such an anaesthesiological procedure, using benzodiazepines, droperidol, fentanyl, pancuronium and N2O/O2, didn't lead to any form of MH crisis on to complications.
