title: [The child with a known metabolic disease: anaesthetic management].
abstract: The anaesthetic management of a child with a known metabolic disease is always a challenge. It should be a multidisciplinary process based upon the experience of all medical specialists involved and on a thorough review of the information available in the literature and in specialized up to date websites. The authors propose a list of questions to be addressed when dealing with such a case and provide two clinical examples.
