Abstract

During operative hysteroscopies, hemodilution by absorption of distention fluids is one of the most feared complications. Resulting hyponatremia due to hemodilution with respiratory distress associated with pulmonary edema, and subsequent cardiovascular collapse may occur. In this case report, we aimed to present management of acute pulmonary edema developed in a 45-years old ASA II woman scheduled to undergo operative hysteroscopy under general anesthesia.
