30 March 1998
We have a medical student who was operated for breast fibroadenoma in
1994.
After such a long time, she happens to read her operation registers
and she notice that she was suspected to be malignant hyperthermia
and some laboratory analysis such as serum phosphokinases and potassium
levels should be performed to confirm the diagnosis. Since then, no laboratory
analysis have been done and noone remembers the situation exactly after
this time period. We want to learn if there is any diagnostic criteria
developed for the malign hyperthermia recently and is there any laboratory
performs these analysis.
Looking forward to hearing and thank you in advance.
