Resumo

JUSTIFICATIVA E OBJETIVOS: A síndrome de Guillain-Barré após vacina de sarampo é rara. O diagnóstico muitas vezes é tardio, o que leva a um aumento da morbidade. O presente relato apresenta um caso avançado e os cuidados especiais exigidos durante a anestesia. RELATO DO CASO: Paciente do sexo masculino, com quatro anos de idade com síndrome de Guillain-Barré desde um ano de idade, foi submetido a gastrostomia sob anestesia geral sem intercorrências, com sevoflurano e sem bloqueadores neuromusculares. CONCLUSÕES: O caso ilustra a raridade etiológica de uma síndrome importante na prática anestésica assim como os eventos adversos pós-vacinação, a melhor escolha para a equipe anestésica e as complicações da síndrome de Guillain-Barré na infância.

Abstract

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Guillain-Barré syndrome following measles vaccination is uncommon. Diagnosis is often delayed, leading to increased morbidity. This report describes an advanced Guillain-Barré case and the special approaches required during anesthesia. CASE REPORT: Male patient, four years old, with Guillain-Barré syndrome diagnosed at 1 year of age, submitted to gastrostomy under uneventful general anesthesia with sevoflurane, without neuromuscular blockers. CONCLUSIONS: The case highlights the low frequency with which this syndrome so important for anesthetic practice is diagnosed, post-vaccination adverse events, the best choice for the anesthetic team and complications of pediatric Guillain-Barré syndrome.
