La parada cardiaca intraoperatoria posee unas características especiales, ya que son diferentes sus causas y, además, dado que son presenciadas, se instauran medidas de soporte vital de manera inmediata. Se presenta el caso de un varón de 67 años que es sometido a una resección transuretral de vejiga por sangrado, y que a los 30 minutos de realizar una anestesia neuroaxial, se produce una hipotensión brusca y una PCR en asistolia. Se realiza una revisión del tema, con especial interés al diagnóstico diferencial, así como a los algoritmos de tratamiento.
