Abstract | 「Abstract」The patient was a 51-year-old woman who received CABG at 49 years old, and developed poor left ventricular cardiac function (EF, 26%; %FS, 14% and diffuse hypokinesis) after the surgery. The patient was scheduled to undergo thoracoscopy-guided left upper lobe resection. Prior to anesthetic induction, a Flotrac/Vigilleo SystemTM for an arterial pressure line was placed. After starting differential lung ventilation, hypotension and low cardiac index were confirmed by the system, and dobutamine administration was initiated. After that, systolic pressure fluctuated at around 90mmHg, and surgery was completed without any intraoperative complications. 「Introduction」The number of patients on hemodialysis (HD) due to chronic renal failure continues to increase, and the number of patients undergoing surgery is also on the rise. Among perioperative complications associated with chronic renal failure patients, the incidence of acute heart failure and increased susceptibility to infection is high, and particularly with pulmonary resection, acute right ventricular heart failure can be easily induced by a rapid decrease in the pulmonary vascular bed, an increase in pulmonary vascular resistance or an increase in pulmonary vascular permeability. |
