micrograms/ dL) should be obtained. Immediately
aer the blood sample has been obtained, intravenous
hydrocortisone (1 mg/ kg) should be administered.
4. Should “stress dose” steroids have been administered
during the induction of anesthesia? If so, what steroid
preparation and how much should be given? e
corticosteroid should be administered at the time of
induction to minimize the risk of anesthetic induced
hypotension. Although there are several dierent
corticosteroid preparations, it seems logical that
hydrocortisone, the most physiologic form, would be
the best choice. Scientic evidence establishing the
superiority of hydrocortisone over other preparations,
however, is lacking.
5. What might the intraoperative presentation of
the patient with undiagnosed chronic AI be? e
most common clinical sign of acute intraoperative
AI is hypotension. Hypotension, unfortunately,
is nonspecic and can be caused by many things.
Other clues to AI include a history of nausea and
weight loss. Hyperpigmentation of the skin may
be evident, especially if the patient has no tan lines
and skin creases are hyperpigmented. Elevated levels
of ACTH stimulate skin melanocytes to increase
melanin production. If acute AI is suspected, a blood

tion. Overproduction or underproduction of cortisol
causes serious organ dysfunction. Circadian, metabolic,
and stress inputs to specialized hypothalamic cells release
corticotrophin- releasing hormone (CRH), which, in turn,
increases the release of adrenocorticotrophic hormone
(ACTH) from the anterior pituitary gland. e ACTH
stimulates the release of cortisol by the adrenal cortex.
Increased cortisol levels subsequently inhibit the release
of CRH and ACTH (see chapter “Perioperative Adrenal
Crisis”). Cortisol levels are highest between 6 and 9 AM
and are lowest between 11 PM and1AM.

Cushing’s syndrome is caused by any condition that causes
excess secretion of cortisol. Cushing’s disease is more precisely
dened as hypercortisolism caused by an ACTH- secreting
tumor of the pituitary. In adults, Cushing’s disease is responsible for 70% of the cases of Cushing’s syndrome (Box30.1).
Overproduction of glucocorticoids results in hyperglycemia, insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, hypertension, hypokalemia, metabolic alkalosis, obstructive sleep apnea, truncal
obesity, osteoporosis, proximal muscle wasting, bualo
hump, and purple skin striae. Cortisol can cause hypo- or
hypercoagulability. Neurocognitive disorders caused by
excessive cortisol include mood alteration, major depression, anxiety, mania, and brain atrophy (Table 30.1).
2
Endogenous origins of cortisol overproduction include
ACTH- producing anterior pituitary adenomas (70%),
primary adrenal cortical tumors (15%), and ectopic
ACTH- producing tumors (e.g., oat cell carcinoma) (15%).
Pituitary adenomas predominate in women (5 female:1
male). e increased use of abdominal imaging has resulted
in increased discovery of adrenal tumors (adrenal inciden-

Systemic eects of excess cortisol are widespread. Protein
wasting causes proximal muscle weakness and atrophy, thin
skin, easy bruising, and slow healing. Muscle weakness and
obesity can lead to obstructive sleep apnea. Osteoporosis may
predispose to fractures. Impaired immune function is responsible for an increased incidence of infection and sepsis.
In some patients, severe hypercortisolism can cause
hypertensive crises, life- threatening sepsis, and respiratory
insuciency. Emergent resection of an ACTH- producing
adenoma or a cortisol- producing adrenal adenoma would
be indicated for such patients.

Preoperative assessment of the patient with Cushing’s syndrome must include careful evaluation of the many systemic eects of hypercortisolism. Hypertension is present
in 85% of the patients, and 60% have impaired glucose
tolerance. is patient exhibited many of the features of

ing anesthesia can be treated with vasoactive drugs. Patients
with Cushing’s syndrome may, however, be more sensitive
to exogenous vasoactive medications. Hyperglycemia (glucose > 180 mg/ dL) can be treated with intravenous insulin. Close monitoring of plasma glucose levels is indicated
in order to avoid hypoglycemia. e anesthesiologist may
rarely be confronted with an emergent case of severe hypercortisolism in a patient with respiratory failure, malignant
hypertension, severe hypokalemia, metabolic alkalosis, and
sepsis. Etomidate can be eective in reducing serum cortisol levels in preparation for urgent surgery. Etomidate suppresses cortisol production by inhibiting three enzymes
in the steroid synthetic pathway: 17α- hydroxylase,
11 α- hydroxylase, and 11- deoxycortisol β- hydroxylase.

Although the muscle weakness present in patients with
Cushing’s syndrome can be signicant, there is no evidence
that such patients are more sensitive to depolarizing or
nondepolarizing muscle relaxants. Obesity and a history of
obstructive sleep apnea can certainly inuence postoperative ventilatory monitoring and management.
Concerns for anesthesia in patients undergoing pituitary surgery include the head- up position (venous air embolism, reduced cerebral blood ow), sensitivity to mucosal
injection of epinephrine (hypertension, tachycardia), and
potential for hemorrhage. Insertion of an arterial cannula
is strongly recommended for close monitoring of blood
normocarbia and prevent a greater degree of alkalosis.

TREATMENT
e primary treatment of Cushing’s syndrome is resection
of the ACTH- or cortisol- producing tumor. In this case,
the tumor was an ACTH- producing tumor in the anterior
pituitary, and transsphenoidal resection (TSS) of the pitu-
itary tumor was the treatment of choice. Hypopituitarism,
however, occurs in 13% to 81% of patients aerTSS.
Options for the patient that is a poor surgical risk or
one that refuses surgical therapy include pituitary irradiation and/ or medications that suppress cortisol production
(Table 30.2). ese drugs include pituitary antitumor
drugs such as pasireotide, cabergoline, and temozolomide;

and diastolic function. Most patients have an
improvement in cardiac function aer cortisol
levels decrease.
3. What is the medical treatment for acute, severe
Cushing’s syndrome? If the patient is not a surgical
candidate for resection of the ACTH- or cortisolproducing tumors, there are several drugs that may
be eective. Etomidate (0.03 and 0.3 mg/ kg/ hour)
inhibits cortisol production and has a rapid onset of
action. Metypyrone and ketoconazole inhibit steroid
synthesis, and mifepristone is a glucocorticoid- receptor
antagonist. Etomidate is the only drug that can be
given intravenously and is eective for patients with
severe manifestations of hypercortisolism:uncontrolled
hypertension, psychosis, and infection.
4. How can intraoperative DI be diagnosed? Any pituitary
surgery can result in DI. Ahigh index of suspicion for
the potential risk of DI is warranted during resection
of a pituitary tumor or a craniopharyngioma. Frequent
measurement of plasma electrolytes and urinary output
should be done during these types of surgery. Evidence
of DI includes excessive urine output (> 4 mL/ kg/ hr), a
plasma sodium of greater than 145mmol/ L, and a urine
specic gravity of <1.005.

DIABETIC KETOACIDOSIS
Anne Newcomer and Michael Gropper
CLINICALCASE
e Centers for Disease Control (CDC) estimates that
there were 140,000 hospital discharges for DKA in 2009.
A 42- year- old, 70- kg woman with type 1 diabetes and a history of acute pyelonephritis is scheduled for a ureteral stent
exchange. Upon admission, the laboratory studies are notable: serum glucose 500 mg/ dL; serum sodium 139 mEq/
L; serum chloride 112 mEq/ L; serum bicarbonate 14 mEq/
L; serum potassium 5.1 mEq/ L; positive urine and serum
beta- hydroxybutyrate. An arterial blood gas showed: pH
7.13; PaCO2 12mmHg; PaO2 100mmHg. Her physical
examination is signicant for signs of dehydration, tachyp-
is represented an increase of 80,000 since 1988. Similar
data for HHS is lacking, but hospital admission rates are
lower for HHS. Although the mortality from HHS (5%–
40%) is higher than the mortality for DKA (1%– 5%), the
overall mortality rate for hyperglycemic crises decreased
between 1980 and 2009.4 In most cases, underlying ill-
nesses cause mortality in patients with hyperglycemic crisis.
Extremes of age, the presence of hypotension, or coma her-

nea, and lethargy.
PATHOPHYSIOLOGY
Hyperglycemic crisis is a serious condition with important
implications for perioperative clinical care. Diabetic patients
may develop diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and/ or hyperglycemic hyperosmolar state (HHS) in the setting of infection
or trauma that requires urgent surgery.1 Preoperative stabilization to correct life- threatening intravascular volume
and electrolyte imbalances is necessary for the prevention
of intraoperative cardiac dysrhythmias and hemodynamic
instability. Alternatively, patients may develop hyperglycemic crisis during or aer surgery as a direct result of the
stress response to surgery. Perioperative glycemic control is
important, since hyperglycemia can have adverse eects on
wound healing immune and inammatory responses, and
may impair postoperative recovery.
2
Diabetic ketoacidosis is classically associated with type
1 diabetes, but may develop in type 2 diabetics under highstress conditions such as trauma, surgery, sepsis, myocardial
infarction, or cerebrovascular accident.3 Diabetic ketoacidosis is more common in individuals under 65years of age,
while HHS is more common in patients older than 65years
of age with comorbid conditions. As the incidence of type
2 diabetes increases in teenagers and young adults, the incidence of HHS in younger patients may also increase.
MECHANISM
e mechanism of DKA is better delineated than the mechanism for HHS. However both arise from a net reduced
eect of circulating insulin with a concomitant increased
secretion of counterregulatory hormones such as glucagon,
catecholamines, cortisol, and growth hormone. Both DKA
and HHS may be regarded as related disorders on a disease
continuum (Figure 31.1). Pure DKA represents hyperglycemia in the absence of circulating insulin without signicant hyperosmolarity. Patients with HHS, however, have a
relative resistance to insulin. Sucient insulin is present to
suppress ketone production, but not enough to normalize
glucose levels. Over several days, this process culminates in
more severe hyperglycemia and hyperosmolarity.
In clinical practice, a mixed presentation of DKA and
HHS is likely to occur depending on the precipitant, coexisting diseases, and length of illness. In both DKA and
HHS, hepatic gluconeogenesis and glycogenolysis increase
and peripheral glucose utilization decreases, leading to
severe hyperglycemia. In DKA, the accompanying increase
in counterregulatory hormones (glucagon, catecholamines,
cortisol, growth hormone) leads to unchecked lipolysis in
adipose tissue. e liver oxidizes these lipolytic substrates
to ketone bodies (beta- hydroxybutyrate and acetoacetate).
Beta- hyroxybutyrate (β- OHB) and acetoacetate accumu-
late and cause a marked metabolic acidosis. In HHS, the
