ABSTRACT
The Shy-Drager syndrome is a very rare chronic progressive disease characterised by autonomic failure and multiple system atropy. The main clinical manifestations of this syndrome are orthostatic hypotension, urinary and bowel dysfunction, impaired sexual potency and parkinsonean symptoms. A key in the management of anesthesia is the maintenance of cardiovascular atability. These patient are suffered from defective baroreceptor regulation of the blood pressure as a result of autonomic failure. We report a successful epidural anesthesia for vwicolithotomy in a female patient with Shy-Drager syndrome.
