This review aims to summarize current evidence-based approaches to anesthetic management in this vulnerable population. Methods: A comprehensive literature review was conducted focusing on anesthetic strategies and multidisciplinary protocols used in the perioperative care of children with neuromuscular conditions undergoing scoliosis surgery. Emphasis was placed on intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring (IONM), blood conservation techniques, and Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) principles. Results: Key management strategies include individualized preoperative risk assessment, use of total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) to preserve IONM signal integrity, and the implementation of blood conservation methods such as antifibrinolytic therapy and intraoperative cell salvage. Additional perioperative considerations include maintaining normothermia, careful positioning, and multimodal analgesia. Postoperative care should incorporate structured respiratory support and early mobilization within the ERAS pathway to promote recovery and reduce complications. Conclusions: The perioperative care of pediatric patients with neuromuscular scoliosis undergoing spinal surgery requires a multidisciplinary and individualized anesthetic approach. Adherence to evidence-based protocols, including TIVA, blood management strategies, and ERAS principles, is essential for minimizing perioperative complications and improving outcomes in this high-risk group.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/children12111481","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,11,3]],"date-time":"2025-11-03T13:47:58Z","timestamp":1762177678000},"page":"1481","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Perioperative Anesthetic Management in Pediatric Scoliosis Surgery: A Narrative Review with Focus on Neuromuscular Disorders"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"12","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2724-3662","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Barbora","family":"Nedomov\u00e1","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pediatric Anesthesiology and Intensive Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, Comenius University and National Institute of Children\u2019s Diseases, 833 40 Bratislava, Slovakia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Boris","family":"Li\u0161\u010d\u00e1k","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopedics, Faculty of Medicine, Comenius University and National Institute of Children\u2019s Diseases, 833 40 Bratislava, Slovakia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"So\u0148a","family":"Urbanov\u00e1","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pediatric Anesthesiology and Intensive Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, Comenius University and National Institute of Children\u2019s Diseases, 833 40 Bratislava, Slovakia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"\u0160tefan","family":"Pavl\u00edk","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiology, National Institute of Children\u2019s Diseases, 833 40 Bratislava, Slovakia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Rudolf","family":"Riedel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pediatric Anesthesiology and Intensive Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, Comenius University and National Institute of Children\u2019s Diseases, 833 40 Bratislava, Slovakia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2591-1420","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Vlasta","family":"Dost\u00e1lov\u00e1","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anesthesiology and Intensive Care Medicine, Charles University, Faculty of Medicine in Hradec Kralove, University Hospital Hradec Kralove, Sokolska 581, 500 05 Hradec Kralove, Czech Republic"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,11,2]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"643","DOI":"10.1097\/MS9.0000000000001562","article-title":"Clinical characteristics and anaesthetic management of severe scoliosis patients with spinal muscular atrophy: Case series","volume":"86","author":"Wang","year":"2024","journal-title":"Ann.
