Abstract

Aneurysmal surgeries are high-risk procedures due to potential for occurrence of fatal perioperative complications. This risk is exaggerated in the presence of co- existing hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). It involves asymmetrical hypertrophy of left ventricle with mitral valve dysfunction, leading to left ventricular outflow tract obstruction. Various perioperative factors may precipitate this obstruction resulting in life-threatening consequences. We report the management of a patient with HCM undergoing anterior communicating artery aneurysm clipping and discuss the anesthetic concerns. Comprehensive approach with careful drug selection, vigilant monitoring, and preparedness for complications enabled patient safety and a good neurological outcome.
