Laparoscopic appendicectomy surgery using spinal anesthesia
Journal Title: International Archives of Integrated Medicine - Year 2015, Vol 2, Issue 3
Abstract
Laparoscopic abdominal surgery is conventionally done under general anesthesia. Spinal anesthesia is usually preferred in patients where general anesthesia is contraindicated. We have presented here our experience using spinal anesthesia as the first choice for laparoscopic surgery for over 2 years with the contention that it is a good alternative to general anesthesia.
