    Abstract:
    We report an anesthetic experience of a 63-year-old female patient with blue rubber bleb nevus syndrome who underwent an open reduction of the fracture of the right femur. The syndrome is characterized by bluish nevus scattered throughout the skin of the whole body and angiomas of the gastrointestional tract causing serious bleeding. Anesthesia was induced with thiopental followed by intravenous injection of succinylcholine chloride and maintained with neuroleptanesthesia in nitorous oxide and oxygen. The course of anesthesia and emergence from anesthesia were uneventful. Anesthetic management of patients with blue rubber bleb nevus syndrome was also discussed.
