Abstract
A 24-year-old woman underwent endoscopic thyroidectomy with total intravenous anesthesia technique. Immediately after surgery, she said that she had experienced intraoperative awareness for a while. She had vague auditory recall and some degree of pain at the incision site. She was given adequate doses of anesthetics during the operation and the drug delivery system was not compromised. We report awareness during total intravenous anesthesia for endoscopic thyroidectomy.
Key Words: Awareness; Total intravenous anesthesia
