Abstract :
Cutis laxa is a rare congenital multisystem connective tissue disorder. Patients with cutis laxa can present with distinctive facial features, pulmonary emphysema and right-sided heart failure. Anaesthetic management is important because of difficult airway and respiratory/cardiac abnormalities. We have reported the preoperative evaluation and anaesthetic management of a child with Cutis laxa with right cleft lip and palate.
