Abstract
Glucocorticoids were released with a high amount from adrenal cortex in physiological and surgical stress situations to supply homeostasis. But the patients who had adrenal insufficiency, as a result of anesthesia and surgical stress or the insufficiency in glucocorticoid treatment, life threating adrenal crisis can exist. In this case report, we discuss the successful anesthesia technique and cortisol treatment in a patient who underwent beating heart coronary artery bypass surgery with bilateral adrenalectomy surgery for Cushing Syndrome and who have been taken glucocorticoid treatment for several years.
Özet
Glukokortikoidler fizyolojik ve cerrahi stres durumunda homeostazisi sağlamak için adrenal korteksten yüksek miktarlarda salınır. Ancak, adrenal yetmezliği olan olgularda, anestezi ve cerrahi strese ya da glikokortikoid tedavisinde yetersizliğe bağlı yaşamı tehdit eden adrenal kriz gelişebilir. Bu olgu sunumunda, Cushing Sendromuna bağlı bilateral adrenalektomi ameliyatı geçirmiş ve uzun yıllar glikokortikoid tedavisi alan bir olguda, atan kalpte baypas cerrahisi sırasında başarılı şekilde uygulanan anestezi tekniği ve kortizol tedavisi tartışılmıştır.
