Effect of methoxyflurane anesthesia on serum uric acid in man.
Serum uric acid levels were significantly increased on the first and third postoperative days following methoxyflurane anesthesia in subjects undergoing various surgical procedures. The increment on each of these days was significantly correlated with the duration of the anesthesia. No such changes were found following halothane or nitrous oxide-oxygen and relaxant anesthesia.
