Abstract
Congenital cataract is most common treatable cause of blindness in infants of which around 25% are associated with congenital rubella syndrome (CRS). CRS is a constellation of multi-system abnormalities and each problem has significant anaesthetic implications. These patients are a challenge to anesthesiologists at various fronts like unanticipated airway abnormalities, uncorrected cardiac lesions, low birth weight etc. Here we report the anaesthetic management of two neonates of CRS posted for congenital cataract extraction presented with unique problems of uncontrolled severe pulmonary hypertension with PDA and unanticipated difficult airway. Anticipation, extreme vigilance and multidisciplinary approach for management is essential for successful outcome.
