Patient experienced unexpected paralysis after surgery due to genetic predisposition and risk factors.
A 35-year-old woman required mechanical ventilation for over four hours before recovery, indicating delayed reaction to anesthesia.
The patient's heterozygous genetic predisposition for pseudocholinesterase deficiency was crucial in her prolonged paralysis.
Awareness of reduced pseudocholinesterase activity is vital to prevent misjudgments in anesthetic administration.
