Abstract
It is not uncommon for a child or infant to present with a congenital syndrome or condition that may have specific implications for the conduct of their anaesthesia. There are many thousands of such syndromes in existence. This chapter focuses on a few of the more commonly known syndromes and conditions, with emphasis on their clinical features, anaesthetic management, and potential problems that may arise during the perioperative period.
