Abstract The transanal/perineal (ta/tp) endoscopic approach has been widely used for anorectal surgery in recent years, but carbon dioxide embolism is a possible lethal complication. The frequency of this complication in this approach is not known. In this study, we investigated the frequency of intraoperative (including occult) carbon dioxide embolism using transesophageal echocardiography. Patients who underwent surgery via the ta/tp approach and consented to participate were included. Intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography was used to observe the right ventricular system in a four-chamber view. Changes in end-tidal carbon dioxide (EtCO2), oxygen saturation (SpO2), and blood pressure were taken from anesthesia records. Median maximum insufflation pressure during the ta/tp approach was 13.5 (12–18) mmHg. One patient (4.8%) was observed to have a bubble in the right atrium on intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography, with a decrease in EtCO2 from 39 to 35 mmHg but no obvious change in SpO2 or blood pressure. By lowering the insufflation pressure from 15 to 10 mmHg and controlling bleeding from the veins around the prostate, the gas rapidly disappeared and the operation could be continued. Among all patients, the range of variation in intraoperative EtCO2 was 5–22 mmHg, and an intraoperative decrease in EtCO2 of > 3 mmHg within 5 min was observed in 19 patients (median 5 mmHg in 1–10 times).Clinicians should be aware of carbon dioxide embolism as a rare but potentially lethal complication of anorectal surgery, especially when using the ta/tp approach. |
