AbstractA vasectomy patient with sleep apnea syndrome, who requested general anesthesia and day surgery, was given sole propofol infusion with airway maintenance by noninvasive positive-pressure ventilation. Surgery was performed with additional local anesthesia. Because this patient was treated successfully, this anesthetic technique may also be applicable to other normal patients.
