- Abstract
We report a case of 54 year male, a case of dilated cardiomyopathy with low ejection fraction who underwent Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS) under general anesthesia. Anesthetic management of such patients is always requires the highest level of expertise as they are usually complicated by progressive congestive cardiac failure (CHF). The uneventful course of the anesthesia in the presented case was related to the thorough systemic evaluation and careful anesthetic strategy.
