Emergence agitation (EA) after general anesthesia is a common complication during anesthesia recovery. Patients often present with symptoms such as disturbance of consciousness, involuntary limb movements, and emotional agitation, which can potentially lead to unplanned extubation, wound bleeding, and hemodynamic fluctuations. These events seriously threaten the postoperative safety of surgical patients and prolong the recovery...

Introduction: Esophageal rupture with pyothorax and septic shock is a life-threatening emergency. Patients undergoing emergency thoracotomy face the dual challenges of airway management and hemodynamic support during one-lung ventilation (OLV). Case Presentation: A 71-year-old man presented with esophageal rupture, right-sided pyothorax, and fistulas. Rapid sequence induction (RSI) was chosen to avoid positive-pressure ventilation. During OLV,...

Background: Contrast-induced encephalopathy is a rare but potentially serious neurological complication that occurs after intra-arterial injection of iodinated contrast media. It may manifest as acute encephalopathy, seizures, cortical blindness, hemiplegia, or other focal neurological deficits. Case Presentation: A 46-year-old female developed right-sided limb weakness and language dysfunction during transfer after endovascular treatment of an intracranial...

Silent lung is an extreme and life-threatening manifestation of severe bronchospasm, characterized by marked attenuation or complete disappearance of bilateral breath sounds and abrupt loss of the end-tidal carbon dioxide (EtCO₂) waveform. This condition may rapidly progress to severe hypoxemia and cardiac arrest. Early recognition, prompt diagnosis, and standardized intervention are critical for reversing bronchospasm...

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death and disability worldwide. Rapid advances in its diagnosis and treatment in recent years have profoundly influenced the perioperative management of patients undergoing surgery. This article reviews recent progress in cardiovascular disease risk assessment, pharmacotherapy, interventional techniques, and surgical procedures, and discusses the new requirements and challenges...

Perioperative neurocognitive disorders (PND) are highly frequent complications of the central nervous system in elderly patients and are closely related to trauma and neuroinflammation caused by anesthesia and surgery. However, the effect of the depth of anesthesia on PND remains unclear. Previous studies have shown that the use of electroencephalogram (EEG) monitoring to guide the...

The American Diabetes Association (ADA) has undergone a significant evolution in its stance on carbohydrate-restricted diets for diabetes management. Prior to 2008, the ADA largely rejected low-carbohydrate approaches. From 2008 onward, it progressively acknowledged their short-term efficacy for weight loss, extended this recognition to 2 years by 2011, removed time limits in the 2013 consensus...

Laparoscopic extended pancreaticoduodenectomy is a radical surgical procedure for malignant tumors of the pancreatic head and periampullary region, characterized by extensive surgical trauma and complex anatomical dissection. Postoperative intra-abdominal hemorrhage is a life-threatening complication with rapid progression and can quickly lead to hemorrhagic shock. As a minimally invasive and precise hemostatic approach with less secondary...

The case is a 77-year-old female who was treated for arteriosclerosis and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). In March 2025, type 2 diabetes (T2D) was detected, with HbA1c of 8.8%. Physical examination was negative, with BMI of 21.7 kg/m². Blood chemistry examination revealed LDL of 142 mg/dL, and pulse wave velocity (PWV) showed a cardio-ankle vascular...

Introduction: Massive goiter may compress the trachea, causing tracheal deviation and structural abnormalities, resulting in dyspnea. Most patients present with multiple cardiopulmonary complications. Therefore, airway management in such patients carries considerable risks during anesthesia and surgery, and perioperative anesthetic management is relatively complex. Case Presentation: A 78-year-old woman was admitted to the Department of Thyroid...

The case was a 75-year-old male with hypertension, dyslipidemia, type 2 diabetes (T2D), mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and a general presence of arteriosclerosis for years. HbA1c remained stable at about 7.1–7.4%, and otherwise, no remarkable biochemical results were observed. Pulse wave velocity (PWV) showed an ankle-brachial index (ABI) of 0.96/1.12 and a cardio-ankle vascular index...
