ABSTRACT

Anesthetic management of extremely low-birth-weight (ELBW) neonates is always accompanied by many dilemmas and challenges. Here, we report a case in which 512 g of ELBW newborns underwent exploratory laparotomy for perforation. Anesthesia management of such ELBW infants has not been reported in the literature.
