Anesthetic Management of Patient with Severe Interstitial Pulmonary Fibrosis Undergoing Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy (Case Report)

Sabry M Amin

We report the anesthetic management of a patient with severe pulmonary fibrosis for laparoscopic cholecystectomy using an i-gel. A 59-yr-old, 75 kg female was undergoing elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy for acute cholecystitis. The patient had severe pulmonary fibrosis requiring oxygen therapy at home. I-gel has proved to be effective in a patient with severe pulmonary fibrosis who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
