Core Tip	Stellate ganglion block (SGB) anesthesia has remarkable advantages when used in gastrointestinal surgery. In contrast to general anesthesia, SGB effectively stabilizes patient hemodynamics throughout the perioperative phase. Our results showed that using SGB significantly reduced oxidative stress, as evidenced by lower levels of related biomarkers. This not only safeguards cognitive function, but also actively promotes the recovery of gastrointestinal function, presenting a more optimal choice for enhancing patient management and postoperative outcomes.
