Popis: Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is an extensive, lengthy procedure for patients with peritoneal metastases. It is associated with fairly high morbidity and mortality as compared with other non-vascular intra-abdominal surgeries. Fluid and hemodynamic management is challenging and not well established, particularly in patients with a low ejection fraction (EF). This case details the successful intraoperative anesthetic management of a patient with an ejection fraction of 20% undergoing CRS/HIPEC using the addition of intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) as an adjunct to central venous pressure (CVP), urine output (UOP), and calculated stroke volume variation (SVV) for goal-directed resuscitation and blood pressure support.
