Summary

Anorectal surgeries are of the commonest elective surgeries that are performed worldwide under different types of anaesthesia. The aim of this prospective interventional study was to compare the use of general anaesthesia (GA) using a laryngeal mask airway (LMA) with spinal anesthesia (SA) in anorectal surgeries.

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Spinal Anesthesia for Anorectal Surgeries in Prone Position

Spinal anesthesia in sitting position was done under complete aseptic technique through a standard midline approach. One and a half millilitres of 0.5% bupivacaine (7.5 mg) was injected through a 25 Gauge pencil-point needle into the subarachnoid space at L3-L4 or L4-L5 interspace. All patients were kept in a head-up position for 3 minutes. The patient was then asked to turn him- or herself into the prone position on the surgical table with the help of the surgical and anesthetic teams.

PROCEDURE

General Anesthesia Using Laryngeal Mask Airway for Anorectal Surgeries in Prone Position

General anesthesia was induced using fentanyl 2 mcg/kg and Propofol 2-3 mg/kg. Any stomach contents were then suctioned through an oro-gastric tube to reduce the risk of regurgitation. Proper (weight-based) classic laryngeal mask airway was then blindly inserted. laryngeal mask airway was then properly fixed to the face and anesthesia was maintained with isoflurane 1-2% in 50% Oxygen/air mixture.
