title: [Anesthetic management for infected abdominal aneurysm].
abstract: A 48-year-old man was scheduled for repair of mycotic abdominal aortic aneurysm. Extraanatomic bypass was performed due to infection of the aneurysm. General anesthesia combined with continuous epidural anesthesia was performed. In spite of severe blood loss, hemodynamic state was stable during anesthesia and postoperative period. He was managed in the intensive care unit without any complication. In this anesthetic management, it is very important to maintain adequate cardiac output and circulating blood volume to prevent visceral ischemia.
