Psychological changes in children after anaesthesia: a comparison between halothane and ketamine.

abstract：:Venous air embolism during surgery is a rare but important complication and can be rapidly fatal. We present two cases of fatal air embolism in the prone position occurring in small children undergoing surgery for progressive scoliosis. Venous air embolism is a rare complication in the prone position. This is thought ...
