title: [Prolonged residual paralysis after a single intubating dose of rocuronium: an unexpected cause].
abstract: Postoperative curarization following a single dose of rocuronium is a known risk quickly diagnosed through the monitoring of neuromuscular blockade. Different etiologies can cause a prolonged block. We report the case of a misdiagnosis of prolonged neuromuscular blockade by a failure in the monitoring system of curarization.
