A Case Report of Sudden Bradycardia and Impending Cardiac Arrest by Intramyometerial Vassopressin in Laproscopic Myomectomy

Abstract

Vasopressin has long been used in myomectomy to decrease blood loss. Its efficacy is beyond doubt. But at the same time, it is known to cause some of the serious cardiovascular side effects. We are here to report a case of severe bradycardia and impending cardiac arrest caused by intramyometerial infiltration of 13 IU of vasopressin.
