We encountered a case of malignant hyperthermia (MH) in a 3-year-old boy during general anesthesia induction for laparotomy. It has been generally reported that sevoflurane can induce the delayed onset of MH in the absence of succinylcholine. Our case of MH was elicited after about 90 mins of sevoflurane administration with 50/50% Air/O2 mixture. However the patient was successfully treated by early recognition of his condition and supportive treatment.

Motor activity during general anesthesia (GA) without curarization is often interpreted as reflecting insufficient analgosedation. Here we present the case of an octogenarian scheduled for deep sclerectomy receiving opioid-sparing electroencephalography-(EEG)-guided anesthesia. Periodic Leg Movements (PLM) made their appearance with ongoing surgery while his raw EEG displayed a pattern of deep GA (burst suppression). To the best of our knowledge, this is the first description of actimetry-documented persisting PLM during EEG-monitored GA. Recognizing PLM in the context of GA is of importance for anesthesiologists, as increasing sedation may increase motor activity.
