DiGeorge syndrome is afflicted with multiple congenital anomalies such as conotruncal and craniofacial anomaly, immune system dysfunction and hypoplasia/aplasia of parathyroid glands. Laparoscopy is a preferred surgical approach over open orchidopexy due to better visualisation of impalpable testis avoiding long incision, minimal tissue damage and a faster recovery. We report a case of DiGeorge syndrome with corrected tetralogy of Fallot with pulmonary atresia in a 1-year-old male child posted for laparoscopic orchidopexy. The anaesthesiologists face unique challenges due to the multisystem involvement and the effects of laparoscopic surgery on multiple organs. Thorough understanding of DiGeorge syndrome is essential for a good perioperative outcome.
迪乔治综合征伴有多种先天性异常,如圆锥干和颅面异常、免疫系统功能障碍以及甲状旁腺发育不全/发育不良。由于腹腔镜手术能更好地观察无法触及的睾丸,避免长切口,减少组织损伤并加快恢复,因此相较于开放睾丸固定术,它是一种更可取的手术方法。我们报告了一例1岁男性迪乔治综合征患儿,合并法洛四联症伴肺动脉闭锁,拟行腹腔镜睾丸固定术。由于多系统受累以及腹腔镜手术对多个器官的影响,麻醉医生面临着独特的挑战。全面了解迪乔治综合征对于实现良好的围手术期结果至关重要。
