Dexmedetomidine and proprofol in complex microlaryngeal surgery in infants
International Journal of Pediatric Otorhinolaryngology , 08/12/09

Quezado ZMN et al. – The authors describe the case of an infant undergoing endoscopic repair of a laryngeal cleft where the combination of dexmedetomidine and propofol infusions was used as the anesthetic technique. Given the potential benefits of a technique that obviates the need for endotracheal intubation during microlaryngeal surgery and prevents insufflation of halogenated anesthetics in an open environment, the combination of propofol and dexmedetomidine should be considered as a viable and desirable anesthetic option for infants undergoing complex microlaryngeal surgery.
