Anaesthestic Management of a Patient with Klippel Trenaunay Syndrome for RF Ablation of Varicose Veins

Abstract

Klippel Trenaunay Syndrome (KTS) presents unique challenges for anaesthetic management, particularly during procedures such as radiofrequency ablation (RFA) of varicose veins. This abstract outlines the considerations and strategies employed in the anaesthetic management of a patient with KTS undergoing RFA. Key factors such as vascular anomalies, coagulopathy, and potential airway difficulties are discussed. The utilization of preoperative assessment, meticulous planning, and close intraoperative monitoring is emphasized to ensure optimal outcomes and minimize complications. Collaboration between anaesthesiologists, vascular surgeons, and other healthcare professionals is crucial in managing these complex cases effectively. This abstract highlights the importance of a multidisciplinary approach and tailored anaesthetic techniques in providing safe and successful care for patients with KTS undergoing RFA for varicose veins.
