Abstract

Background: Varicosities lingualis were enlarged veins that are prominent and visible on the ventral surface of the tongue. The etiology of varicosities is physiological aging and predisposing factors including hypertension, obesity, smoking, and diabetes mellitus. This serial case aims to assess the relationship between varicosities lingualis and hypertension as a predisposing factor.Method: The case report method uses three patient subjects who write using the SOAP method (Subjective, Objective, Assessment, and Planning).Outcome: Three patients, one female and two males with an age range of 19 years to 25 years, complained of a purplish-blue line under the tongue. All cases showed a purplish-blue line under the tongue. The management given is non-pharmacological, including Communication, Information, and Education (IEC).Conclusion: Hypertension plays an essential role as a predisposing factor in the development of varicosities lingualis due to the hemodynamic effects that cause dilation of blood vessels.

Abstract

Background: Hypertension is a major global health issue with a high prevalence and is often a risk factor for various cardiovascular complications such as coronary artery disease, stroke, and heart failure. Hypertensive patients who are uncontrolled or have other comorbidities tend to be more susceptible to hemodynamic changes during induction, maintenance, and recovery from anesthesia. Method: The materials and methods of this study were derived from various literatures regarding anesthesia in hypertensive patients. The literature was obtained from journals, sourced from Google Scholar. The articles were from the years 2021 to 2024. Result: Optimal blood pressure control before the procedure is crucial to prevent serious complications, such as stroke or myocardial infarction. During anesthesia induction, the choice of anesthetic agents must be tailored to the patient's condition to avoid excessive blood pressure reduction, and close monitoring should be performed throughout the procedure. After surgery, it is important to continue careful blood pressure management and ensure safe recovery to prevent long-term negative health impacts on hypertensive patients.
