[Althesin or CT 1341 as a drug to induce balanced anesthesia with ethrane or fluothane associated with type II NLA in dental, maxillofacial and plastic surgery of the head area].

: The Authors have tried Althesin as a medicine for the induction and maintainement of the narcosis in the stomatological, maxillo-facial and extra and intra-oral surgery. They have deduced that CT 1341 does not constitute to the anaesthetics Ethrane and Fluothane because of the anaesthetic-level instability (restlessness of the patient and clonic movements of the limbs during the most painful operations in particular). The Authors, supporters of the balanced anaesthesia, suggest using Althesin in the narcosis induction, the maintaining of which is carried on by the N.L.A. type II medicine and by the Ethrane or Fluothane. The latest ones are to be given in very small, not dangerous quantities. The Authors have so obtained a remarkable oxygenation of the patient, a ready, calm and lucid awakening without any collateral and dangerous consequences.
