AbstractThe use of laparoscopic techniques in general surgery is increasing in popularity. The anesthesiologist's goals during laparoscopic surgery are hemodynamic and respiratory stability, appropriate muscle relaxation, control of diaphragmatic excursion, intraoperative and postoperative patient analgesia. The implications are that the anesthesiologist must use a technique that not only allows for optimal surgical conditions but also provides intraoperative patient comfort and safety and a rapid postoperative anesthetic recovery. Laparoscopy is not a benign procedure. It is associated with major and minor surgical and non surgical complications, including death. Therefore, it is imperative that the anesthesiologist and surgeon thoroughly understand the physiopathology and immediate treatment of these potential complications and communicate effectively about their management.
