Abstract:
In high-risk anaesthetic patients, the choice of a preoperative anaesthesia remains a difficult challenge before performing a heavy surgery such as colon excision. Nowadays, hypnosedation may be considered as an additional anaesthetic technique given to be associated with local or regional anaesthesia, in order to permit more surgery possibilities in high risk patients.
