: We report a case of brainstem anesthesia (BSA) and subsequent cardiac arrest following a routinary peribulbar block (PB) in a patient scheduled for cataract extraction and intraocular lens (IOL) implantation, thus providing a reference for further analysis of this potentially catastrophic life-threatening complication and to evaluate the current knowledge in terms of incidence, physiopathology management, and treatment of the BSA following PB. : Three databases (PubMed, Embase, and Scopus) were checked to perform a systematic review of all available studies in the English Language following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines to evaluate relevant studies that clearly described BSA following BSA. : Our literature search identified 15 cases.
