| description | Pituitary tumours are the second most common intracranial tumours. The anaesthetic management of pituitary tumours requires an in-depth understanding of the principles of neuroanaesthesia and pituitary disorders. Immaculate preanaesthetic evaluation, intraoperative management and postoperative care with interdisciplinary teamwork are essential for successful outcomes in surgeries for pituitary tumours. This case report discusses a 34-year-old female patient presenting for the management of a pituitary macroadenoma, illustrating the anaesthetic challenges faced in such cases. The presence of acromegaly, along with co-morbidities such as hypertension, necessitated a detailed anaesthetic management plan. The patient underwent thorough preanaesthetic evaluation and had a transnasal trans-sphenoidal tumour excision under general anaesthesia, following standard protocols for difficult airway management. The patient was intubated using a video laryngoscope and invasive blood pressure and central venous pressure monitoring were conducted. Following surgery, the patient was transferred to the neurosurgery intensive care unit and was subsequently discharged on the 10th postoperative day. |
