pubmed-article:2363482 | pubmed:abstractText | Anesthesia of patients suffering from one of the various types of myopathy and with a view to orthopedic operation, cannot be univocal. Operating indications, preparation, results, vary according to the type of suffering. The absence of associated cardiopathy allows surgery even with severe respiratory failures. The experiment of an orthopedic surgery department over a 10 years period shows that these patients may be effectively taken charge of by a multidisciplinary group, thus restricting to a maximum their hospital stay for the benefit of at home hospitalization techniques. | lld:pubmed |
