title: [Anterior surgical approach to T12 and L1 in recurring vertebral hydatidosis: anesthetic management].
abstract: A 47-year-old man with recurring vertebral hydatidosis was scheduled for surgical removal of cysts by an anterior approach. Anesthetic management included multimodal monitoring and prophylaxis for the most common neurological, hemodynamic, and respiratory complications, as well as for appropriate control of pain during and after surgery. The spine is a rare location for hydatid cysts. Treatment is surgical, although imidazoles are useful for prevention and protection against recurrence. The prognosis is good.
