Abstract: ［Abstract］Objective　To compare anesthetic effect and safety of general anesthesia and combined spinal and epidural anesthesia used in autonomic nervous hyperresponsive surgery for patients with paraplegia. Methods 26 paraplegic patients were randomly divided into two groups - control group and treatment group from February 2011 to November，2015，each with 13 cases. The control group used general anesthesia，while the treatment group used combined spinal and epidural anesthesia, to observe onset time, duration, intraoperative hemodynamic changes and complications, Complications, length of stay and cost，Days and costs of hospitalization，satisfaction of patients and their families，of anesthesia in two groups. Results The dosage of narcotics and the onset time of the treatment group were better than that of the control group．The difference between the two groups was significant，and had statistical significance（P＜0.05）．Two groups of patients after surgery，diastolic blood pressure，systolic blood pressure and heart rate were lower in the treatment group than in the control group，and had statistically significant difference（P＜0.05）；The postoperative complications of the treatment group were significantly better than those of the control group，and had statistically significant difference（P＜0.05）；There were statistically significant differences in postoperative pain degree between the two groups（P＜0.05）；Two groups of patients in hospital days，hospital costs，satisfaction rate had statistically significant difference，Have statistical significance（P＜0.05）. Conclusion　In autonomic nervous hyperresponsive surgery for patients with paraplegia，anesthetic effect and safety of combined spinal and epidural anesthesia is significantly better than that of general anesthesia， featured by the rapid onset of action，long duration，fewer complications， strong safety and patients' great satisfaction. It is worth generalizing and applying clinically.
