ABSTRACT
Pulmonary edema is infrequently reported after administration of propofol. This
article describes pulmonary edema in a woman of 45 year old who presented for
elective cholecystectomy for minimum access, under general anesthesia with
propofol. According to possible hypotheses in previous reports this pulmonary
edema could be due to a direct cardiodepressant effect of propofol for antagonism
with calcium channels or to the syndrome related with propofol infusion. Moreover,
it is likely that in this case there is an underlying ischemia coexisted whenever a
segmental alteration of ventricular contraction was observed on echocardiography.
