title: Atracurium as an adjunct to halothane-oxygen anesthesia in a llama undergoing intraocular surgery. A case report.
abstract: Atracurium (0.2 mg/kg intravenously [IV]) was administered to a llama anesthetized with halothane in oxygen, to insure immobilization of the globe during intraocular surgery. Recovery of neuromuscular function was facilitated by administration of edrophonium (0.5 mg/kg IV).
