A review of a case series of sixteen anaesthetics in eight cases was undertaken to determine whether children with Prader-Willi syndrome present particular problems to the anaesthetist. Children in an early stage of the condition who are below their centile for weight present no specific problems. Children who are heavier than 97th centile weight have problems associated with their obesity: difficult intravenous access and sleep apnoea. Scoliosis was noted in both groups and was not associated with problems after minor surgery.
对8例患者的16次麻醉病例系列进行了回顾，以确定普拉德-威利综合征患儿是否给麻醉师带来特殊问题。处于疾病早期且体重低于百分位数的儿童没有特殊问题。体重高于第97百分位数的儿童存在与肥胖相关的问题：静脉穿刺困难和睡眠呼吸暂停。两组均发现脊柱侧弯，且与小手术后的问题无关。
