Abstract	Congenital heart diseases, such as atrioventricular septal defect, increase the perioperative risk of children presenting for surgery. We report a case of a pediatric patient with partial atrioventricular septal defect who presented for emergency evacuation of brain abscess. The preoperative findings, pathophysiology of the cardiac condition, and effects of anesthesia were correlated to safely administer general anesthesia for an emergency noncardiac surgery. More reports and studies can further establish the anesthetic considerations that can point toward safe perioperative management of future similar cases.
