A case of premature infant who developed tissue necrosis after propofol infusion
Öz: To the Editor, Propofol is one of the most widely used drugs as an anesthetic agent due to its ideal chemical properties, neutral pH level and isotonicity. Tissue damage due to propofol is extremely rare1 . There are publications in the literature reporting that areas of necrosis develop secondary to infections2,3. Propofol-related necrosis, seizures and thrombosis are rarely seen in newborns and infancy4 . Here, we present a case of a premature baby with inferior vena cava thrombus, seizures and areas of necrosis in the right leg due to propofol administered during anesthesia in inguinal hernia surgery. To the best of our knowledge, the infant was the youngest patient in the literature to suffer thrombosis after administration of propofol.
