title: [Catecholamine-secreting paraganglioma in a patient with Eisenmenger syndrome and a single ventricle. Nitric oxide administration and minimally invasive haemodynamic monitoring].
abstract: Surgery for catecholamine-secreting neuroendocrine tumours poses a high anaesthetic risk that might increase due to coexisting congenital heart diseases, such as a single ventricle and Eisenmenger syndrome. This report emphasises the usefulness of pulse range haemodynamic monitoring over thermodilution in a patient with a single ventricle. In addition, the importance of nitric oxide is stressed in the management of respiratory problems associated to surgical-related pulmonary hypertension. As to the anaesthetic techniques, none is preferred as long as the one chosen has no haemodynamic repercussions.
