AbstractThis case report describes the anaesthetic management of a patient with sporadic-type long QT interval syndrome (LQTS), and increased QT dispersion, who presented for removal of an ovarian cyst. Beta adrenergic blockade and adequate depth of anaesthesia for successful management is emphasized. The successful use of epidural administration of lignocaine and opioids in addition to general anaesthesia is described.
