Abstract
A-60-year-old male suffering from endotoxin shock due to infection of the bilary duct underwent cholecystectomy under modified NLA.
After the operation, he developed severe respiratory failure and DIC.
Controlled ventilation with PEEP, using the volume limited respirator and nebulization, was continued for respiratory failure. DIC was treated with intravenous administration of heparin, fresh blood and thrombocyte, and antibiotics and steroid were administered for sepsis.
But all treatment failed, and we lost the patient 87 hours after the operation.
