Journal Title: Journal of Evidence Based Medicine and Healthcare - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 7
Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with kyphoscoliosis present a unique challenge during their anaesthetic management due to physiological derangements in cardiac and pulmonary function and may cause difficulties with both tracheal intubation and regional anaesthesia. We present a case report of 30 year’s male patient with severe kyphoscoliosis posted for right side Lichtenstein’s meshplasty successfully managed with spinal anaesthesia.
