Spinal anesthesia in gynecological laparoscopic surgery

Abstract

Laparoscopic procedures that are widely used in gynecological surgery are commonly applied under general anesthesia. However, spinal anesthesia is preferred only in patients where general anesthesia is contraindicated. The literature indicates that general surgery under spinal anesthesia in fit patients (e.g., laparoscopic cholecystectomy) is used more than gynecologic surgery. In this case report, we present the laparoscopic treatment of a patient with an ectopic pregnancy who had elevated liver enzyme levels and did not consent to general anesthesia and thus underwent spinal anesthesia.
