Hi guys, good job!

I wanted to know if you encountered any arrythmias? short bursts of SVTs and ectopics are common during handling of the tumor.

Here is the article i was mentioning -
http://medind.nic.in/iad/t05/i2/iadt05i2p137.pdf
this is by rajiv (you met him in chennai) while in nims. here sevoflurane has been solely used to handle fluctuations in bp without any ectopics - usually due to sensitization of the myocardium with the inhalational agents.

if you came across any other special article or any specific point about pheo, pls do post.

Congratulations again.

Hi Vibha,
We didn't encounter any sort of arrythmias which is expected. Even
when i did last case of pheo around 6mths back which was a unprepared
case even i was not prepared for the crisis and B.P. started rising
upto 270 and nonrecordable on my monitor; There was an acute st
depression in lead II which i was monitoring but no arrythmias . This
B.P. remained high for about 20- 30 min.but god was with me and no
postop complication. This case definitely taught me how lack of
prepartion even for benign adrenal mass can tear you.
