Anaesthesia for caesarean delivery in a patient with May-Hegglin anomaly.
نویسنده
چکیده
The anaesthetic management for Caesarean delivery is described in a patient with May-Hegglin anomaly. The condition, which is inherited as an autosomal dominant characteristic, has features of thrombocytopenia and a bleeding diathesis. Labour was induced and she received type specific platelet transfusion. Spinal anaesthesia, using five per cent lidocaine, 75 mg, with epinephrine and 0.5 mg morphine sulphate produced satisfactory operating conditions, excellent postoperative analgesia, and uncomplicated initial recovery.

Anaesthetic management for Caesarean section in a pre-eclamptic patient with Ebstein's anomaly and a right to left intracardiac shunt was accomplished under general anaesthesia. Air bubbles in the venous line were meticulously eliminated to prevent paradoxical air emboli. A rapid sequence induction using standard doses of thiopentone and succinylcholine did not result in loss of consciousness a...
متن کاملCaesarean section under extradural analgesia in a patient with Ebstein's anomaly.
Ebstein's anomaly is a rare congenital malformation of the tricuspid valve, often associated with an atrial septal defect. Death occurs usually from cardiac arrhythmias. The successful use of a two-catheter technique for elective Caesarean section with extradural analgesia is described and the hazards associated with Ebstein's anomaly in pregnancy and anaesthesia are discussed.
متن کاملExtradural anaesthesia for caesarean section in a patient with syringomyelia and Chiari type I anomaly.
We describe elective Caesarean section performed under extradural anaesthesia in a parturient with symptomatic syringomyelia and coexisting Chiari type I anomaly. Syringomyelia is reviewed and the anaesthetic implications of the condition discussed. Anaesthesia should be directed primarily at avoidance of increased intracranial pressure, which can cause sudden deterioration in these patients.
متن کاملEpidural anesthesia for labor and delivery in a patient with May–Hegglin anomaly: a case report
We report a case of May-Hegglin anomaly (MHA) in a woman who had a successful labor and delivery under epidural anesthesia. MHA is an inherited thrombocytopenia easily misdiagnosed as idiopathic (immune) thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP). Early and appropriate diagnosis of MHA during pregnancy is essential for optimal maternal and neonatal delivery outcome. Additionally, it can avoid unnecessary d...
