AbstractA pregnant patient at 38 weeks gestation presented for a combined procedure of Caesarean section, tubal ligation and cerebral aneurysm clipping. Anaesthesia was induced with thiopental, succinylcholine was administered to facilitate tracheal intubation, and intravenous lidocaine and sodium nitroprusside were used to reduce the hypertensive response to tracheal intubation. Anaesthesia was maintained with nitrous oxide until delivery of the infant, after which time fentanyl, low-dose halothane and pancuronium were added for maintenance of anaesthesia during the neurosurgical procedure. Blood pressure was controlled during the case by administration of a sodium nitroprusside infusion and propranolol. Following completion of the surgical procedures, the patient promptly emerged from anaesthesia and was neurologically normal in the operating room. It is concluded that general anaesthesia can be used satisfactorily for a combined procedure of Caesarean section and cerebral aneurysm clipping.
