We reviewed the research progress of anesthesia management in hepatic echinococcosis surgery in recent years, including the key technologies, practical experience, and research progress of anesthesia management in hepatic echinococcosis surgery, so as to guide clinical practice. Firstly, in the selection of anesthesia, the general anesthesia combined with epidural block or regional nerve block is recommended to improve surgical safety and patients’ comfort. At the same time, the importance of intraoperative continuous monitoring, including key indicators such as hemodynamics and respiratory function, is emphasized, and transesophageal echocardiography and brain function monitoring techniques are introduced to optimize anesthesia management. Finally, the concept of enhanced recovery after surgery is promoted, and measures such as preoperative optimization, intraoperative heat preservation, refined fluid management, and postoperative analgesic management are implemented to promote the rapid recovery of patients. At the same time, some challenges and unsolved problems in the current research also are pointed out, such as complex case evaluation, complications prevention, and teamwork, etc., which need to be further studied in the future to optimize the anesthesia strategy.
