AbstractA series of 66 consecutive cases of blepharoplasty and rhytidectomy are reported, 60 of which were performed with a general anesthesia technic utilizing local anesthesia with epinephrine, in association with enflurane inhalation delivered via bilateral nasopharyngeal airways (BNPA). Six cases were not suitable candidates for the technic because of physical status or for anatomic reasons. The technic has teh advantage of providing airway control without tracheal intubation, light depth of anesthesia, compatibility with epinephrine, and highly acceptable limits of intraoperative bleeding and postoperative hematoma.
