Abstract :Kabuki Syndrome is disease derived from a rare genetic mutation that is particularly characterized by distinctive facial features, musculosketal malformations, mental retardation and cardiopulmonary anomalies and several pathologies. From anesthetic aspect, this syndrome may cause both cardiovascular and inspiratory problems, defects in palate and collum and also a number of difficulties in selecting medications and invasive procedures. Difficult intubation, prolonged neuromuscular blockage and malignant hyperthermia are frequently encountered problems in the patients with Kabuki Syndrome. An attentive examination of the patient in preoperative stage and appropriate medication preference is essential in order to prevent complications.Keywords : KABUKI MAKE-UP, CONGENITAL ANOMALY, MALIGNANT HYPERTHERMIA, DIFFICULT INTUBATION
