The intraoperative management of robotic-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy.
Current Opinion in Anaesthesiology 2023 December 2
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Robotic-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy has become the second most commonly performed robotic surgical procedure worldwide, therefore, anesthesiologists should be aware of the intraoperative pathophysiological consequences. The aim of this narrative review is to report the most recent updates regarding the intraoperative management of anesthesia, ventilation, hemodynamics and central nervous system, during robotic-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy.
RECENT FINDINGS: Surgical innovations and the advent of new technologies make it imperative to optimize the anesthesia management to provide the most holistic approach possible. In addition, an ageing population with an increasing burden of comorbidities requires multifocal attention to reduce the surgical stress.
SUMMARY: Total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) and balanced general anesthesia are similar in terms of postoperative complications and hospital stay. Reversal of rocuronium is associated with shorter hospital stay and postanesthesia recovery time. Adequate PEEP levels improve oxygenation and driving pressure, and the use of a single recruitment maneuver after the intubation reduces postoperative pulmonary complications. Restrictive intravenous fluid administration minimizes bladder-urethra anastomosis complications and facial edema. TIVA maintains a better autoregulation compared with balanced general anesthesia. Anesthesiologists should be able to optimize the intraoperative management to improve outcomes.
