RESUMEN
Congenital insensitivity to pain with anhidrosis (CIPA) is a rare disorder with an absence of pain perception, anhidrosis, heat intolerance, and varying degrees of mental retardation. Though cases of CIPA have innate analgesia, they have been known to have tactile hyperesthesia, thus making anesthesia necessary in case of any surgery. Perioperative complications due to abnormal autonomic functions like bradycardia, hypotension, and hyperthermia are major challenges in the anesthetic management of these cases. Here, we report a case on the anesthetic management of CIPA.
