Abstract

Prilocain is a commonly used local anaesthetic, but its side effect, called methemoglobinemia, can cause death. Methaemoglobinemia is characterised with different levels of cyanosis and haemoglobin, including trivalent iron (ferric, Fe+++), concentration is increased in these cases. This situation causes hypoxia in tissues. In this case report, we discussed a 66 days old male baby. Methaemoglobinemia should be considered if cyanosis occured and a discordance between pO2 and SaO2 levels spotted in patients after a surgical process, and these patients should be observed in fully equipped pediatric intensive care units for precaution.

Özet

Prilokain, pek çok alanda kullanılan lokal anestetik bir ajandır, ancak hayatı tehdit edebilen bir yan etki olan methemoglobinemiye neden olabilmektedir. Methemoglobinemi değişen derecelerde siyanozla karakterize olup bu olgularda üç değerlikli demir ferri (Fe+++) içeren hemoglobin konsantrasyonu artar. Dokularda hipoksiye neden olur. Bu olgu sunumunda 66 günlük erkek bir bebek tartışılmıştır. Cerrahi girişim sonrasında siyanoz gelişen ve pO2 ile SaO2 değerleri arasında uyumsuzluk saptanan hastalarda methemoglobinemi düşünülmeli ve gelişebilecek problemler açısından tam donanımlı çocuk yoğun bakım ünitelerinde izlenmelidirler.
