An alternative anesthetic technique for the morbidly obese patient undergoing endovascular repair of an abdominal aortic aneurysm.
Anesth Analg. 2003; (4): 981-3, table of contents
Abdominal aortic aneurysms have been treated by open operative repair for many years. A frequent rate of morbidity is associated with the natural history of abdominal aortic aneurysms in combination with open surgical repair. Recently a new technique that is less surgically invasive has been developed as an alternative to open repair. The present case report outlines a less invasive anesthetic technique for the morbidly obese patient.
