Özet
Phaeochromocytoma is an uncommon neuroectodermic tumour of adrenal medulla. Additional cardiac problems make anaesthesia management of phaeochromocytoma more complicated. We aimed to present the anaesthetic management of phaeochromocytoma patient with aortic valve insufficiency (AVI). A 45 years-old, 65 kg, female patient with third degree of AVI was admitted for phaeochromocytoma surgery. Before surgery, she was pre-treated with phenoxybenzamine and nicardipine for a week. In the operation room, thoracic epidural analgesia was maintained with 10 mL 0.5% bupivacaine loading dose, followed by 5 mL 0.5% bapivacaine for every hour during surgery. Then anaesthesia was induced with midazolam, droperidol, fentanyl, vecuronium, metoprolol and lidocaine. High dose fentanyl anaesthesia with 0.5-1.5% isoflurane were preferred for maintenance of anaesthesia. Haemodynamic stability was obtained with this anaesthesia management with lower dose vasodilators until the resection of adrenal mass. After the resection, severe hypotension was controlled with inotropic agents. Surgery was completed uneventfully and patient was transferred to ICU. In phaeochromocytoma cases with AVI, we think that appropriate anaesthetic approach is the thoracal epidural analgesia and high dose fentanyl anaesthesia with support of vasodilatators or vasoactive agents.
