This case report details the successful anaesthetic management of a 65-year-old male with severe dilated cardiomyopathy, coronary artery disease, and extensive cardiovascular risk factors scheduled for elective right inguinal hernioplasty with hemiorchidectomy. The anaesthetic approach, including regional nerve blocks (ilioinguinal, iliohypogastric, genital branch of genitofemoral) and transversus abdominis plane block, successfully minimised cardiac stress and maintained hemodynamic stability throughout the procedure.
