Area of Science:

  • Anesthesiology
  • Surgical Oncology
  • Critical Care Medicine

Background:

  • Hemicorporectomy is a radical surgical procedure with significant hemodynamic and ventilatory implications.
  • Effective anesthesia management is paramount for successful patient outcomes in hemicorporectomy.

Observation:

  • This report details the anesthesia approach for a patient with squamous cell carcinoma undergoing urgent hemicorporectomy.
  • The patient experienced hypovolemic shock (class 3) due to lesion bleeding prior to surgery.

Findings:

  • General inhalation anesthesia and intravenous multimodal analgesia were employed.
  • Hemodynamic instability necessitated massive blood transfusion following spinal cord transection and specimen removal.

Implications:
