Sumario:Urologic surgeries are widely performed, and the cases have increased owing to the fact that the elderly population is growing. The narrow and limited surgical space is a challenge in performing most urologic surgeries.

We have searched the literature on anesthesia for urologic surgeries and summarized the anesthetic considerations for urologic surgeries.
