{Abstract}: Adults patients with congenital heart disease increasingly present for non cardiac surgery. The anesthetic management this type of patients in neurosurgery requires a meticulous surgical anesthetic planning. The need for urgent intervention, with the presence of a congenital heart disease evolved to Eisenmenger syndrome, associated to a difficult airway, is a challenge for the anesthesiologist. The use of dexmedetomidine may be a valid alternative. We present the case of a patient with Down syndrome, and Eisenmenger syndrome who underwent drainage of brain abscess from the emergency department and was subsequently scheduled for reintervention. We compare the different anesthetic techniques used in both procedures, analyzing the implications they had on the main physiopathological alterations presented by the patient.
