Propofol or sevoflurane for anesthesia in child tumor surgery
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This trial compares two types of anesthesia medicine—propofol versus sevoflurane—during planned surgery to remove a solid tumor. It aims to find which option is safer and works better for children having curative tumor surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests different ways of giving propofol (a medicine to make you sleep during surgery) to see which method works best. If you are having planned surgery with a breathing tube, this trial might help improve how anesthesia is given.
This study compares two types of general anesthesia—propofol-based total intravenous anesthesia versus sevoflurane inhaled anesthesia—during planned surgery to remove liver tumors. The goal is to see whether the anesthesia choice affects long-term outcomes after partial liver removal for hepatocellular carcinoma.
This trial compares two types of anesthesia medicines—propofol and sevoflurane—during planned surgery for primary ovarian tumors. It looks at how these anesthetics may affect outcomes in people having elective brain surgery related to ovarian cancer treatment planning.
This trial compares two types of anesthesia medicines to see how they may affect outcomes after surgery for certain primary cancers. You may be considered if you’re having planned (elective) surgery under general anesthesia and meet the safety and health criteria.
This study looks at whether using different anesthesia drugs during planned lung tumor surgery affects recovery and longer-term outcomes. It also aims to understand why the anesthesia choice might make a difference.
This study checks whether a specific anesthesia plan used during surgery is practical and safe for people having their first operation for a high-grade brain tumor. If it works well, it may help support better outcomes after surgery.
