Overview

Rocuronium anaphylaxis warrants consideration in unstable pediatric cases; extends sparse reports but leaves open incidence and risk data.

Structured PICO

P
Population
1 pediatric patient (33-month-old female, 15 kg) with deep flame burn (38% body surface area) scheduled for escharectomy.
I
Intervention
Rocuronium bromide 10 mg intravenous injection during anesthesia induction.
O
Outcome
Anaphylaxis/anaphylactoid reaction (hypotension, tachycardia, hypoxia)safety

This case highlights the rare occurrence of rocuronium-induced anaphylaxis in a very young pediatric patient, emphasizing the need for vigilance during anesthesia.

Limitations

  • Lack of immediate biological test or skin test to confirm immunological mechanism (parents refused skin test)
