[Place of neuroleptics in geriatric anesthesia].
The elderly show changes in various parenchymas linked to the process of ageing. Pathological abnormalities may be added to this picture leading to physiopathology peculiar to the aged. In relation to special problems raised by this background, the advantages and disadvantages of N.L.A. are discussed. The authors refer to an experiment in the Department of Anesthetics and Intensive Care in Créteil.
