title: [Presentation of 2 cases of neuromuscular excitation associated with propofol].
abstract: The cases of two patients who received peridural and intradural anesthesia and propofol as sedation are presented. In one case generalized tonic and clonic convulsions, and in the other, opisthotonos appeared. Neither patient had previous neurologic disease nor, in the context of complications, did other causes to explain the same appear except for the possible association with propofol to which similar secondary effects have been described.
