[Anesthetic management for surgery of the ankle joint fracture in a patient with Ebstein's anomaly].
The authors describe the successful anesthetic management of a patient with Ebstein's anomaly and Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome who underwent repair for foot joint fracture. Anesthesia was provided by combined spinal-epidural block to minimize hemodynamic changes which cause an increase in right-to-left shunt and hypoxemia. We estimated hemodynamic status using radial arterial pressure, central venous pressure and ECG from the start of anesthesia. During anesthesia, his vital signs were unchanged to any significant degree. The recovery was rapid and the postoperative course was uneventful.
