Purpose: The purpose of this study was to assess whether the anesthetic type is associated with the prognosis of pathological stage I non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

Methods: Clinicopathological data from 431 consecutive patients who underwent lobectomy for NSCLC between 2010 and 2016 were collected. Patients were classified into groups according to the type of anesthesia: propofol-based total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) or inhalation anesthesia (INHA). We investigated the prognostic differences between these two groups.

Results: A total of 72 patients in the TIVA group and 158 patients in the INHA group were eligible for the analysis. Recurrence was observed in 4 (5.6%) patients in the TIVA group and 19 (12.0%) patients in the INHA group (P = 0.159), and all-cause death occurred in 4 (5.6%) patients in the TIVA group and 24 (15.2%) patients in the INHA group (P = 0.049). The 5-year recurrence-free survival (RFS) and overall survival rates of the TIVA/INHA groups were 91.7%/77.4% and 94.4%/83.5%, respectively. TIVA was associated with a significantly better prognosis. A multivariable analysis of factors associated with RFS revealed that the type of anesthesia as a significant prognostic factor (P = 0.047).

Conclusion: Propofol-based TIVA was associated with a better prognosis in comparison to INHA in patients with surgically resected pathological stage I NSCLC.

General Endotracheal Anesthesia vs Total Intravenous Anesthesia for Children Undergoing Low-Risk Cardiac Catheterization.

Pediatr Cardiol

January 2025

Division of Pediatric Cardiology, Department of Cardiovascular Medicine, Mayo Clinic, 200 1st St SW, Rochester, MN, 55901, USA.

Historically, children undergoing cardiac catheterization have been managed with general endotracheal anesthesia (GETA). However, recent practice has favored general anesthesia with total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA). This study compares procedural outcomes in the pediatric cardiac catheterization laboratory (PCCL) for children undergoing low-risk cardiac catheterization with GETA vs.

Background: Propofol is one of the most used intravenous anesthetic agents in traumatic brain injury (TBI) patients undergoing emergency neurosurgical procedures. Despite being efficacious, its administration is associated with dose-related adverse effects. The use of adjuvants along with propofol aids in limiting its consumption, thereby mitigating the side effects related to propofol usage.

Higher intraoperative opioid doses may be associated with worse long-term oncological outcomes after radical prostatectomy (RP) for prostate cancer. We aimed to evaluate the impact of higher doses of intraoperative opioids and type of anesthesia on biochemical recurrence (BCR) and mortality after RP in a high-volume tertiary center. All patients underwent RP at our center between 2015 and 2021.

Intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring (IONM) has achieved popularity because it facilitates monitoring of the functional integrity of neural structures under general anesthesia. It aids in the early detection of injury and minimizes postoperative neurologic deficit or neurologic morbidity from surgical manipulations of various neurologic structures. The patient mentioned in this case report presented with lower limb radiculopathy and was diagnosed with diastematomyelia Type II, and she was planned for surgical intervention under general anesthesia.

Study Design: This was a narrative review.

Objective: The objective of this review was to summarize the current evidence and knowledge gaps regarding anesthesia and pain management for scoliosis surgery, including multimodal analgesia, and identify the best anesthetic approach to scoliosis surgery that ensures patient safety and pain relief even in the postoperative period, with minimal influence on SSEP monitoring.

Summary Of Background Data: Spinal surgeries and fusions for scoliosis are associated with high pain levels.
