Epidural anesthesia and non-invasive ventilation for radical retropubic prostatectomy in two obese patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report two cases of anesthesia for radical retropubic prostatectomy (RRP) in obese-chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients using the combination of epidural anesthesia and non-invasive ventilation (NIV). This technique avoided intubation, general anesthesia and perioperative pulmonary complications.

We describe the use of non-invasive positive pressure ventilation combined with spinal anaesthesia to allow the insertion of a dynamic hip screw in an obese patient with advanced chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. The technique avoided the hazards of intubation and general anaesthesia in this high-risk patient.

OBJECTIVES Our objectives were to analyze the effectiveness of epidural anesthesia in patients who underwent open retropubic radical prostatectomy (RRP) at our institution over the past decade, and to examine subsequent oncologic outcomes, comparing those receiving with those not receiving epidural anesthesia. METHODS A comprehensive database of all patients undergoing RRP from November 1996 ...

Efficiency of non-invasive positive pressure ventilation in the treatment of respiratory failure has been shown in many published studies. In this review article, we introduced new modalities of non-invasive ventilation (NIV), clinical settings in which NIV can be used and a practical summary of the latest official guidelines published by the European Respiratory Clinical Practice. Clinical tri...
