Anesthetic implications for cochlear implant in a child with cardiac anomaly

Abstract

The symptomatic or incidental finding of one or more congenital anomalies warrants a detailed history and systemic examination to find out or exclude the presence of other associated anomalies. In the present case report, a young child presented with hearing loss and a cardiac anomaly. A pre-emptive interventional management resulted in successful outcome after the surgery under a tailored general anesthesia.
