Masseter muscle spasm; it is important to perform necessary interventions in time with regards to providing safe airway and probability of development of malignant hyperthermia. Patients who develop masseter rigidity during anaesthesia may have an underlying myotonic disorder. In this case, we report an undiagnosed case of lipid stroge myopathy in a patient, who developed life masseter spasm following a routine standard induction of anaesthesia.

Masseter kas spazmı; güvenli havayolu sağlanması ve malign hipertermi gelişebilmesi açısından önemlidir. Anestezi esnasında
