A technique of anaesthesia for radical otological surgery is described. The benefits of lidocaine as an intravenous anaesthetic agent in conjunction with nitrous oxide have been suggested for this particular operation in 33 patients. The stability of the cardiovascular system, the obtunding of laryngotracheal reflexes, and a rapid recovery without nausea or other deleterious side-effects were noted.
