Abstract
Introduction:
The most severe form of hemodynamic instability is vasoplegic syndrome.
Case Presentation:
This case report presents a case of vasoplegic syndrome in a patient with a twin pregnancy during cardiopulmonary bypass.
Conclusions:
In this case, we managed vasoplegia by maintaining high flows of the cardiopulmonary bypass, reducing the use of volatile anesthetics, administering vasoactive drugs, and optimizing hemoglobin levels above normal thresholds.
