The purpose of this paper is to clarify the effect of halothane anesthesia on hepatic function of dogs. Three dogs were anesthetized with 2.5% halothane for 3 hours once a week for 3 weeks. Liver biopsy by abdominal incision was carried out before and after anesthesia. Clinical and blood examination were performed before and the 1st, 3rd, and 7th day after anesthesia. Two other dogs were anesthetized with chloroform by the same procedure as a model of anesthetic hepatic dysfunction.
