Abstract
Limb-Girdle muscular dystrophies (LGMDs) are a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of disorders characterized in general by predominantly limb-girdle weakness. It manifests as proximal muscle weakness involving the pelvic girdle and scapular girdle. We report the anaesthetic management of a patient who is a known case of limb-girdle muscular dystrophy, presented with cholecystitis to our institution. Patient underwent endoscopic retrograde cholangio pancreatography (ERCP) under total intravenous anaesthesia followed by laparoscopic cholecystectomy under spinal anaesthesia which were managed successfully.
