The following is a report of the anesthetic experience in the surgical management of two cases of surgery for pheochromocytoma performed at Maryknoll Hospital, Busan, between the dates of June and July, 1982, The report covers the pre-surgical tests and the laboratory results on the two cases, which was similar, and the anesthetic agents halothane and enflurane, was used on the cases, respectively. During surgery using the anesthetic agent halothane, which was chosen because of the high blood pressure of the patient, and our effect to control it, we encountered dangerous arrythmia. In the case where enflurane was the anesthetic agent uaed, it was found that while the blood pressure of the patient was more difficult to control, the incidence of arrythmias was much less frequent. In one of the cases, becsuse of hemorrhage from the operative site during the immediate surgical period, re-exploration was done with adequate replacement of whole blood and catecholamines administered as needed during the anesthetic management. In comparing the two cases, the one case in which alpha-sdrenergic blockers were not administered during the pre-surgical period, when compared with the case in which the the blockers were used, showed, after removal ef the tumor, a decrease in the need for alpha-adrenergic stimulators.
