    Author: Takahashi K, Sai Y, Nosaka S.
    Journal: Eur J Anaesthesiol; 1998 May; 15(3):364-6. PubMed ID: 9649999.
    Abstract:
    In this case report, the anaesthetic management for a removal of phaeochromocytoma undertaken immediately following Caesarean section is described. A 32-year-old female patients was given epidural anaesthesia for Caesarean section, and thereafter, general anaesthesia for a resection of phaeochromocytoma. During surgery, phentolamine, nitroglycerine and prostaglandin E1 were electively administered to decrease blood pressure and heart rate. A live infant was delivered and the supra-adrenal tumour was excised successfully. The patient's post-operative recovery was uneventful.
