Abstract
Syncope syndromes like carotid sinus syndrome, situational syncope, and neurocardiogenic syncope, also known as vasovagal syncope are neurally mediated. Among them, vasovagal syncope forms majority of reasons of the unexplained syncope observed in either children or adults. In this case report, we aimed at the presentation of sudden occurrence of sinus bradycardia and hypotension following induction of anaesthesia immediately after placing patient into Trendelenburg position in a case with previously diagnosed vasovagal syncope scheduled to undergo laparoscopic tubal ligation under general anaesthesia within the scope of current literature.
Özet
Senkop sendromlarından karotis sinüs sendromu, durumsal senkop ve vazovagal (vagovagal) senkop olarak da bilinen nörokardiyojenik senkop nöral aracılı meydana gelmektedir. Bunlardan vazovagal senkop, çocuk ve erişkinlerde açıklanamayan senkop nedenlerinin çoğunluğunu oluşturmaktadır. Bu olgu sunumunda önceden vazovagal senkop tanısı almış ve genel anestezi altında laparoskopik tüp ligasyonu planlanan olguda anestezi indüksiyonundan sonra Trendelenburg pozisyona alınmayı takiben ani gelişen bradikardi ve hipotansiyonunun literatür eşliğinde tartışılarak sunulması amaçlandı.
