A 60-year-old man with renal cell carcinoma extending through inferior vena cava into the right atrium was scheduled for the removal of the right kidney under general anesthesia and the cardiopulmonary bypass technique. In order to obtain a clear operative field and to minimize the risk for pulmonary embolism of necrotizing tumor, total circulatory arrest under profound hypothermia (20 degrees C) was performed. Anesthesia was maintained with high doses of fentanyl (62 micrograms.kg-1), midazolam and supplemented with enflurane. We attempted to prevent circulatory collapse due to acute pulmonary embolism by tumor fragments during operation. The body temperature of the patient was decreased down to 20 degrees C for protecting central nervous system with the minimal damage. No complications occurred during anesthesia and the post-operative period. For the safe anesthetic management of the patient such as our case, adequate monitoring of circulation and protection of central nervous system are essential.
