title: General anaesthesia for laparascopic adrenalectomy.
abstract: Surgical treatment of adrenal disorders is increasingly performed under laparascopic approach. Both pneumoperitoneum and adrenal tumour manipulation may induce haemodynamic variations. The aim of this study was to compare the inhalational and intravenous anaesthetic management for laparascopic adrenalectomy. Between 1977 and 1999 there were performed 28 laparascopic adrenalectomies. At patients with functioning adenoma and hypertension the anaesthesia was maintained with isoflurane in 8 cases and sevoflurane in 6 cases, et 14 patients with non-functioning adrenal masses with propofol and fentanyl (TIVA). In addition to the circulatory and respiratory monitoring there were made serial laboratory determinations (acid-base state, serum potassium, blood glucose) during the operation. On the basis of measured parameters isoflurane and sevoflurane anaesthesia proved to be favourable in case of functioning adrenal adenoma and TIVA with propofol and fentanyl in case of non-functioning adenoma.
