General anaesthesia for ophthalmic surgery
The majority of ophthalmic surgeries are performed as day cases under topical or regional anaesthesia with or without intravenous sedation. However, general anaesthesia is necessary in certain circumstances e.g. local anaesthetic allergy or patients who are unable to cooperate or to lie flat or still. Patients for ophthalmic surgery are frequently elderly with multiple comorbidities, such as diabetes and hypertension. Patients with rare genetic syndromes may present for eye surgery.
Anaesthesia for renal transplantation
Renal transplantation is the most common solid organ transplant performed and it is the treatment of choice for end-stage renal disease (ESRD). These patients present a unique set of challenges to the anaesthetist, who has a crucial role in the immediate success of the transplanted organ. This article describes the assessment of the adult patient for renal transplantation, the perioperative management and the aims in the postoperative period.

Dental trauma is a frequently reported complication related to the administration of general anaesthesia and is the most common source of litigation against anaesthetists. General anaesthesia involving direct laryngoscopy, a difficult airway, pre-existing poor dentition and prosthetic dental restoration are major risk factors for dental trauma. Central maxillary incisors are the most frequently damaged teeth.
