소아 생체 부분 간이식시 Propofol을 이용한 전정맥 마취 경험 - 증례 보고

We have experienced one case of anesthesia for living related liver transplantation with propofol. The recipient was 18-month-old girl and 10.5 kg. She was suffered from congenital liver disease (biliary atresia). We decided propofol as an anesthetic agent of the recipient with permission of the recipient's parents. Total anesthetic time was about 13 hours and anhepatic phase was 110 min. Careful attention was paid to prevent infection, hypothermia, hepatic artery thrombosis and to keep proper lung function. Hemodynamic changes were relatively stable throughout the operation and postoperative mechanical ventilatory support was required for about 2 days. (Korean J Anesthesiol 1999; 36: 354∼359)
