Paraplegia is a rare but devastating complication, which may follow thoracoabdominal aortic surgery. Many adjuncts have been developed to reduce this risk including cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) drainage. Acetazolamide (carbonic anhydrase inhibitor) is a drug used to counteract mountain sickness and one of its effects is to reduce CSF production. Here, we report its first postoperative application in thoracoabdominal surgery with the aim of reducing cerebrospinal cord perfusion pressure and reducing risk of paraplegia.
