Abstract

The management of children affected by neurosurgical pathologies is multidisciplinary and should be set on several fronts.The potential need for massive blood components transfusions, the prolonged anaesthesia in paediatric age that may be often complicated by various forms of syndrome-related problems, and airway management are often encountered.The problems may be divided schematically into three large groups: preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative problems.The aim of this work is to optimize and make paediatric neurosurgery safe by highlighting the most important aspects in the various perioperative phases.
