The Bezold–Jarisch Reflex Following an Endoscopic Endonasal Resection of an Intraosseous Clival Myxoma: A Case Report

Case Reports in Anesthesiology, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
In certain contexts, young and healthy patients with a strong heart and a history of vasovagal syncope are at increased risk of cardiac arrest. An increase in vagal tone results in the normal maintenance of arterial pressure shifting into parasympathetic activation and sympathetic suppression, amplifying afferent mechanoreceptors and, in rare instances,
