“…6,7 A limited number of reports describing the anaesthetic management of dogs with PS undergoing BV have been published: volatile anaesthetic agents combined with opioids and/or lidocaine and/or benzodiazepine were generally administered. [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] Moreover, the use of dexmedetomidine infusion combined with a volatile anaesthetic has been reported to reduce the need of intraoperative vasopressors and antimuscarinics. 15 Compared to isoflurane, propofol infusion maintained higher systemic vascular resistance (SVR) and arterial blood pressure, but without affecting cardiac index, in dogs.…”

A 6‐month‐old, 4 kg, male pomeranian, was referred for investigations of a heart murmur found during a routine clinical examination. A severe valvular pulmonic stenosis was diagnosed and medical management with atenolol was started. One month later, the dog underwent percutaneous balloon valvuloplasty. Anaesthesia was maintained with propofol‐dexmedetomidine continuous infusion, and a minimally invasive cardiac output monitor was used to assess haemodynamic variations. Intraoperatively, lidocaine was started because the frequency of the premature ventricular complexes increased before ballooning. A reduction in pressure gradient across the pulmonic valve was achieved. No other intraoperative complications were recorded. Recovery from general anaesthesia was uneventful, and the dog was discharged from the hospital 26 hours following the procedure.
