Abstract
Objective: Progress in other medical specialities sometimes brings a challenge for the anaesthetist to adopt anaesthetic care while scarce information is available. One such example is irreversible electroporation (IRE).
The aim is to describe the anaesthetic technique for IRE based on our own experience and available studies. Patients and methods: Up to 1st May 2012, 14 pa tients were treated by IRE, one of the patients twice.
We assessed the anaesthetic charts and laboratory examinations. Conclusion: The optimal anaesthetic technique was based on short-acting agents and obligatory monitoring of the neuromuscular transmission.
The post- operative course was usually without problems.
