ABSTRACT
Bronchospasm is the clinical component of exacerbated underlying airway hyper-reactivity or as part of a more severe underlying pathology such as anaphylaxis. This article reports multiple episodes of bronchospasm after general anesthesia induction for elective surgery of laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Bronchospasm is a joint event during the intubation period, especially in patients with respiratory disease, but in most cases resolves without further complications. It was manifested in isolation in this patient, with no cardiovascular compromise, no skin signs. This case report reviews the literature and the algorithm taken to manage this adverse event and guarantees patient care and successful outcome.
