[Anaesthesia and postoperative care in terminal renal insufficiency. Experiences in 132 cases (author's transl)].
A retrospective study was carried out examining the complication- and mortality-rate in 132 patients with terminal renal insufficiency who underwent major surgery: partial gastrectomy, bilateral nephrectomy and vascular surgery at the lower extremities. The anaesthetic management consisted primarily of general anesthesia and muscle relaxation except for vascular surgery at lower extremities where continuous epidural anaesthesia was used. The problems of the anaesthetic management and postoperative care including dialysis are discussed. Although this group of patients is at high risk, the complications can be kept at a minimum with appropriate anaesthetic management and postoperative care.
