Resumo: Introduction: Carcinoid tumors have the potential to metastasize and the ability to secrete bioactive substances. Carcinoid crisis is a serious event that may be triggered during anesthesia. It is a challenge to the anesthesiologist because it can provoke oscillations of blood pressure, flushing, bronchospasm and arrhythmias. Case Report: We report our anesthetic management of a 63-year-old male with a lung carcinoid tumor with liver and bone metastases that was submitted to surgical correction of bilateral inguinal hernia. Octreotide infusion was initiated at 25 µg/h preoperatively and was maintained for 24 hours after the surgery. There were no complications, with hemodynamic and ventilatory stability. Discussion: Carcinoid crisis is a life-threatening complication. The anesthesiologist must focus on preventing stressful situations that can provoke the release of bioactive substances. Octreotide is the drug of choice to prevent and treat carcinoid crisis and should be readily available for patients with carcinoid tumors.

A crise carcinóide é um evento grave que pode ser desencadeado durante a anestesia. É um desafio para o anestesiologista, pois pode provocar oscilações da pressão arterial, rubor, broncoespasmo e arritmias. Caso Clínico: Descrevemos o manuseio anestésico de um homem de 63 anos com tumor carcinóide pulmonar com metástases hepáticas e ósseas que foi submetido à correção cirúrgica de hérnia inguinal bilateral. A perfusão de octreotido foi iniciada a 25 µg/h no pré-operatório e mantida por 24 horas após a cirurgia. Não houve complicações, mantendo-se estabilidade hemodinâmica e ventilatória. Discussão: A crise carcinóide acarreta risco de vida. O anestesiologista deve focar-se na prevenção de situações que podem provocar a libertação de substâncias bioativas. O octreotido é o fármaco de escolha para prevenir e tratar crises carcinóides e deve estar prontamente disponível para estes pacientes.Sociedade Portuguesa de Anestesiologia2022-06-30T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttps://doi.org/10.25751/rspa.25866eng0871-6099Fernandes, Marianainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2022-09-23T15:34:54Zoai:ojs.revistas.rcaap.pt:article/25866Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T16:04:20.833799Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
