For anesthetic management, general anesthesia was performed with the insertion of an endotracheal tube as an anticipatory for massive bleeding in this patient. Total bleeding during the operation was 2100 ml, and two bags of Packed Red Cells (PRC) were transfused during the operation. Postoperatively, the patient underwent treatment in the intensive care unit for one day to stabilize his general condition before being transferred to the regular ward. The patient was discharged after 2 days of treatment in the ward.
