A 4-month-old boy with Proteus syndrome underwent a successful operation for a left abdominal mass due to hydroureter and hydronephrosis with left ureterovesical stenosis. The operation lasted 4.5 h under general anaesthesia; there were no anaesthetic complications. There is only one previous report on anaesthesia in a patient with Proteus syndrome.
