A report is made of a 44-year-old female who died of malignant hyperthermia during general anesthesia for an operation of left subtrochanteric femoral fracture. Symptoms began with increases in heart rate and blood pressure after the introduction of anesthesia with halothane and were accelerated by
We present a case of a bone marrow donor who developed rhabdomyolysis, acute renal failure and pulmonary edema following an apparently uneventful general anesthesia for bone marrow harvesting. Because malignant hyperthermia (MH) was suspected, he was treated with dantrolene, fluid loading, and

A multiplex DNA microarray chip aimed at the identification of allelic polymorphisms was developed for simultaneous detection of swine disease resistance genes underlying malignant hyperthermia (RYR), postweaning diarrhea, edema disease (FUT1), neonatal diarrhea (MUC4), and influenza (MX1). The
