Abstract

Chromosome 4q Deletion Syndrome (4QDS) is a rare chromosomal deletion that presents with various congenital defects that could affect anesthetic management. We present a patient with known 4QDS who underwent successful general anesthetic induction, tracheal intubation, and subsequently, bilateral quadratus lumborum nerve blocks, during laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair surgery.
