ABSTRACT
A 65?year?old male post?CABG surgery presented with history of ventricular storm refractory to antiarrhythmics and requiring multiple DC shocks. He got posted for VATs bilateral cardiac denervation for sympathetic remodulation. Patient was induced with high dose opioids and Etomidate and intubated with 37Fr left double lumen tube. A multidisciplinary approach was planned to tackle peri?operative cardiac event along with the placement of invasive monitors. Events that might lead to sympathetic overactivation because of laryngoscopy, pain, capnothorax, and surgical handling were kept in mind and avoided with optimum depth of anesthesia, analgesia, and pharmacological sympatholysis. There was no major cardiac event intraoperatively as well as in postoperative period.
