Abstract
This study was conducted on 18 good-grade subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) patients in the interventional neuroradiology suite with digital subtraction angiography to study the vasodilatory effects of sevoflurane and propofol anaesthesia on the major cerebral vessels during endovascular coiling. This study confirms the cerebral vasodilatory effect of inhalational anaesthetic - sevoflurane compared to propofol, and this may be important in choosing the most appropriate anaesthetic regimen while anaesthetising such cases.
