Abstract
- Pheoehromocytoma is a kind of very rare endocrine disease and which is completely recovered by surgical resection of the tumor, but rapidly changing cardiovascular response to the cathecholamine during the anesthetic course and after removal of tumor make the anesthetic management difficulty. Various anesthetic agent can be used with their good and bad characteristics successfully if the pathophysiology of the disease and pharmacology of the drugs are kept in mind. We have experienced successful anesthetic management for pheocromocytoma removal using halothane-N2O-O2, and muscle relaxant and cardiovascular change was supported by pentolamine (Regitine), Propranolol(Inderal), and Levophed.
