Abstract
This rare case report highlights the hemodynamic variability associated with Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) in a patient with splenic injury secondary to trauma and offers a safe anesthetic practice in general. Tachycardia is usually a predominant manifestation of hypovolemia in patients who have lost significant amount of extracellular fluid and at the same time tachycardia could be the only symptoms of POTS under general anesthesia. Hence it is essential to include tachycardia associated with POTS as part of the differential diagnosis.
