    Abnormal variants of plasma cholinesterase are a rarity in this region and to date there is only one reported case of suxamethonium sensitivity in a Malaysian population. We now report a case of a Malaysian Chinese patient who received suxamethonium, developed prolonged apnoea and on investigation found to be a homozygote for the silent gene. His family was screened for abnormal variants of plasma cholinesterase. The results are discussed.
