  • 摘要:

    Generally, absolute alcohol embolization has been commonly used for treatment of arteriovenous malformation (AVM) because complete surgical extirpation of AVM can be an extremely hazardous and difficult. Even if absolute alcohol is safe embolic agent, it can result in pain, pulmonary hypertension, pulmonary embolism and post-embolization syndrome such as nausea, vomiting, hemolysis and myoglobinuria. So, general anesthesia is needed for alcohol embolization. In this case, anesthesia was induced with intravenous (IV) propofol 110 mg and succinylcholine 60 mg and maintained with propofol and vecuronium. The pulmonary artery pressure was monitored with a Swan-Ganz catheter. After alcohol injectons, systolic pulmonary artery pressure was increased, ranging 35-40 mmHg. And cola-colored urine was noticed. For treatment of pulmonary hypertension, nitroglycerine was given IV. The IV fluid rate was increased and furocemide was given IV to increase the urine output. After general anesthesia, the patient was awake but appeared to be alcohol-intoxicated. Blood alcohol level was 42 mg/dl. Urinalysis showed large amounts of myoglobin, hemoglobin and albumin. So, anesthesiologists have to keep in mind of such complications when absolute alcohol embolization is done.
