Anesthesia and Postoperative Analgesia for a Patient with Mungan Syndrome, Autosomal Recessive Familial Visceral Myopathy: A Case Report

Mungan syndrome, a type of familial visceral myopathy, is a rare autosomal recessive genetic disorder characterized mainly by pseudo-obstruction caused by visceral myopathy. There are different components of this syndrome, such as Barret's esophagus, megaduodenum and cardiac abnormalities. Anesthetic management and procedures for postoperative analgesia are essential for patients with this syndrome to prevent complications such as ileus caused by pseudo-obstruction. This report presents our experience managing anesthesia during total hip replacement surgery performed on a 39-year-old female patient diagnosed with Mungan syndrome.
