摘要
Neuroleptic malignant syndrome is a potentially fatal disorder that may develop in the perioperative period. A case is described in which discontinuation of chronic levodopa therapy precipitated the postoperative development of this syndrome. The differential diagnosis and management principles are reviewed.
