Abstract
We describe a patient with postpoliomyelitis residual paralysis with thoracolumbar kyphoscoliosis who presented for an emergency endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography and interval laparoscopic cholecystectomy. This case report emphasizes on the adequate perioperative optimization and the meticulous anesthetic management of a long-standing kyphoscoliotic patient with respiratory compromise.
