We present the case of a successful application of combined spinal-epidural anesthesia for a geriatric patient undergoing open cancer surgery. The patient, affected by multiple comorbidities, was proposed for an open anterior rectal resection. The implementation of a tailored protocol, incorporating neuraxial techniques such as epidural and spinal anesthesia, facilitated optimal pain management and expedited postoperative recovery improving perioperative outcomes, and highlighting the potential benefits of such strategies in selected cases.
我们介绍了一例成功地对一名接受开放性癌症手术的老年患者应用腰麻-硬膜外联合麻醉的病例。该患者患有多种合并症,拟行开放性直肠前切除术。实施一个量身定制的方案,纳入硬膜外麻醉和腰麻等神经轴技术,有助于实现最佳的疼痛管理,并加快术后恢复,改善围手术期结局,突出了此类策略在特定病例中的潜在益处。
