Laparoscopic Donor Nephrectomy

Abstract

Anesthesia during laparoscopic donor nephrectomy remains the key component for success. The various aspects that the treating medical professionals should know in this regard are the details regarding the preanaethesia check up, intraoperative management anaethesia related issues and the post-operative care. In this chapter these points are detailed.
