摘要: Malignant hyperpyrexia developed, and was successfully treated, in a 50-year old man undergoing pyelolithotomy. Early diagnosis with the assistance of end-tidal carbon dioxide monitoring facilitated prompt treatment i. v. dantrolene. A positive muscle biopsy subsequently confirmed diagnosis. The only likely triggering agent used isoflurane.
