hi
anesthesia risks divided to
patients health conditions
then type of anesthesia you been under (G/A,R/A or local anesthesia)
and the anesthesiologist with his equipments
the most common risks is
respiratory complication
cardiovascular complications
anesthesia machine error
and lack of experience

All operations and all anesthesia have some risks, and they are dependent upon many factors including the type of surgery and the medical condition of the patient. Fortunately, adverse events are very rare. Your anesthesiologist takes precautions to prevent an accident from occurring just as you do when driving a car or crossing the street.
The specific risks of anesthesia vary with the particular procedure and the condition of the patient. You should ask your anesthesiologist about any risks that may be associated with your anesthesia.

There are several types of anesthesia. There is local, regional and general anesthesia. General anesthesia effects are to not feel pain, not remember and to have vital signs controlled in normal ranges. The effect is to not be aware during a procedure or surgery. Many studies have shown this to be very safe. After anesthesia people usually feel somewhat sedate, and "hungover". This feeling resolves quickly and you feel pretty normal quickly. There are no known long term problems from having anesthesia, and there are many people who have had anesthesia again and again without difficulty
Side effects of regional or local anesthetics vary depending on the type of anesthetic used and the way it is administered.Paralysis after a regional anesthetic such as an epidural, spinal, or ganglionic blockade is extremely rare.
possible dental injuries from intubation as well as such serious complications as stroke, liver damage, or massive hemorrhage.
Tenotomy carries a small risk of excess bleeding and infection. Tenotomy performed under general anesthesia carries additional risks associated with the anesthesia itself.
Risks associated with otoplasties are common to all operations performed under general anesthesia including: bleeding or infection of the incision; numbness or loss of feeling in the area around the incision; and reaction to the anesthesia.
Careful injection of local anesthesia or nerve blocks create sufficient numbness to allow the surgery to be performed painlessly, without the risks associated with general anesthesia.
same risks associated with any other major abdominal operation performed under general anesthesia, such as wound problems, difficulty swallowing, infections, nausea, and blood clotting.
The risks involved in club foot repair are the general risks associated with anesthesia and surgery. Adverse reactions to medications, breathing problems, excessive bleeding, infections.
All surgery, especially under general anesthesia, carries certain risks, such as the risk of scarring, hemorrhaging, infection, and reactions to the anesthesia. Pelvic surgery can also cause internal scarring which can lead to discomfort years afterward.
Risk of infection, risks associated with anesthesia (which are lower with local anesthesia), possible drug interactions, surgery complications such as nerve damage.
Needle biopsy is associated with fewer risks than open biopsy because it does not involve general anesthesia. Some hemoptysis (coughing up blood) occurs in 5% of needle biopsies.
no
Cardiac arrest
The risks are the same as when a woman is not pregnant. I don't know any risks related toward the baby. You can do local anesthesia instead, to reduce the risks of general anesthesia.
there is a risk of infection.there is a risk of urine leakage from the bladder incision site.injury to nearby organs, complications associated with general anesthesia. excessive blood loss, sexual dysfunction, or urinary incontinence
