Is Rbbb During Laminectomy Due To Anesthesia?

During a laminectomy I had a RBBB. There was no indication of this preop EKG. Is the RBB caused by anesthesia and is it self limiting ad reversible after anesthesia? Age 67, 71 inches tall, 245 pounds. History of normal EKG's except for episode of palpitations years ago.
