Diffuse alveolar hemorrhage following inhaled sevoflurane: A rare complication of inhalational anesthesia.

Sevoflurane is a commonly used inhalational anesthetic agent for inducing and maintaining general anesthesia. However, it has been associated with a rare but serious pulmonary condition known as diffuse alveolar hemorrhage (DAH). DAH is characterized by decreased hemoglobin levels, diffuse pulmonary infiltration, and respiratory failure with hypoxemia.
