RESUMEN
Se presenta un caso de una paciente femenina de 67 años de edad con antecedentes de hipertensión arterial y trastorno depresivo recurrente grave, a quien se le realizó histerectomía total con doble anexectomía. Se describe el tratamiento habitual para la enfermedad de base, el método anestésico empleado, el monitoreo intraoperatorio, las complicaciones presentadas e interacciones medicamentosas. En conclusión, el uso de antidepresivos tricíclicos continúan teniendo mala repercusión en interacción con fármacos anestésicos, pero es importante la valoración riesgo-beneficio de su empleo en dichos pacientes.

A description is provided of the usual treatment for the underlying disease, the anaesthetic procedure, intraoperative monitoring, emerging complications and drug interactions.
