Abstract

General anesthesia is the most widely used anesthetic and is the standard for most surgeries. However, general anesthesia has several disadvantages, including side effects of the drugs used, longer recovery time, and inadequate pain control. Therefore, the use of regional anesthesia is an alternative option to reduce the adverse effects of general anesthesia, one of which is spinal segmental thoracic anesthesia. In this case report, a 52-year-old woman that diagnosed with Stage IIb Acute Limb Ischemia (ALI) underwent embolectomy under thoracic spinal segmental anesthesia. The patient presented with ASA III physical status with type II DM, CHF, CAD3VD and increased coagulation factors. Thoracic spinal anesthesia with a paramedian approach at the level of the T10-11 vertebrae using a regimen of levobupivacaine 5 mg and bupivacaine 2.5 mg. The adjuvants used were dexmedetomidine 5 mcg, ketamine 15 mg, and fentanyl 25 mg. During the operation there were no hemodynamic fluctuations. Post-operative monitoring of the patient's condition was stable, pain control was good, and there were no complaints of headache, nausea, and vomiting. Segmental thoracic spinal anesthesia has several advantages such as the need for lower anesthetic doses, safer than lumbar spinal anesthesia, good pain control, faster recovery, and avoiding the side effects of general anesthesia. Therefore, this anesthetic technique can be an effective alternative choice for general anesthesia

Abstract

General anesthesia is used in most surgeries, but there has disadvantages, such as drug side effects and a long recovery. Spinal anesthesia such as TSA is starting to get attention and become an alternative option to reduce adverse effects and more effective. This case report, a 33-year-old woman diagnosed complete closed fracture of the 1/3 proximal right humerus underwent Open Reduction and Internal Fixation (ORIF) surgery with segmental thoracic Spinal Anesthesia (TSA). The patient presented with ASA II with mild electrolyte imbalance. Thoracic spinal anesthesia with a paramedian approach at the level of T4-5 vertebrae using a regimen levobupivacaine 5 mg. The adjuvants used were dexmedetomidine 5 mcg, ketamine 5 mg, and fentanyl 25 mcg. Intraoperative and postoperative monitoring of the patient's condition was stable, pain control was good, and no postoperative complications such as headache, nausea and vomiting. Thoracic segmental spinal anesthesia has several advantages such as the need for lower doses of anesthetic drugs and relatively safer than lumbar spinal anesthesia, good pain control, faster recovery, and can avoid the side effects of general anesthesia, so that TSA can be an alternative technical choice for anesthesia.

Abstract

Breast cancer is a disease with the highest incidence of malignancy in Indonesia and the world. Epidemiological studies have shown that cancer affects billions of women each year. The incidence of breast cancer increases with age. In the elderly, the possibility of co-morbidities which are comorbid major medical problems makes anesthetic management decisions more complicated and perioperative care more challenging. Increasing age and comorbidities are the most important risk factors for postoperative complications. TSA was performed on a 59-year-old female patient with comorbid bronchiectasis who received MRM. The level of needle insertion was between T5-T6, premedication in the form of 0.5 mg alprazolam tablets, initiation of TSA with 1 ml of 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine and 20 mcg of fentanyl. The level of sensory block achieved was between T1-T7. TSA resolved without complications. The patient remained comfortable during the operation and there was no significant change in the patient's hemodynamics, airway and breathing. There were no postoperative complications. Thoracal segmental spinal anesthesia (TSA) is a safe alternative in performing modified radical mastectomy (MRM) and other breast surgeries because it has highly selective spinal block capabilities, ensures better control during induction and surgical processes, stability of the respiratory system and cardiovascular, and reduces the need for local anesthetics and has a lower risk of toxicity.
