Abstract

Breast cancer is a heterogeneous disease resulting in various complications especially in women having diabetes mellitus .The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of general anesthesia during radical mastectomy in breast cancer patients with controlled diabetes and without diabetes. The study was conducted on 120 breast cancer patients underwent for radical mastectomy .Out of 120, 60 were non –diabetic breast cancer patients and 60 controlled diabetic breast cancer patients. In our study blood glucose level was found increased significantly (p<0.05) in breast cancer patients with controlled diabetes in comparison to breast cancer patients without diabetes during 30min after induction while there is no significant difference observed during 5 min preoperatively. Hyperglycemia may represent surgical stress which can be controlled by judicious use of anesthetic agents including opioids especially in diabetics.
