Dwarfism is characterized by short stature. Pregnancy in women with dwarfism is uncommon and cesarean section is generally indicated for delivery. Patients with dwarfism are high-risk population for both general and regional anesthesia, let alone in an emergency surgery.
In this case report we present a 27-year-old Chinese puerpera with dwarfism who underwent emergency cesarean section under combined spinal and epidural anesthesia.
It is an original case report, which provides instructive significance for anesthesia management especially combined spinal and epidural anesthesia in this rare condition. There was only one former article that reported a puerpera who underwent combined spinal and epidural anesthesia for a selective cesarean section.
侏儒症的特征是身材矮小。侏儒症女性怀孕并不常见,分娩通常需要剖宫产。侏儒症患者无论是全身麻醉还是区域麻醉都是高危人群,更不用说急诊手术了。
在本病例报告中,我们介绍了一名27岁患侏儒症的中国产妇,她在腰麻-硬膜外联合麻醉下接受了急诊剖宫产。
这是一篇原创病例报告,对于这种罕见情况下的麻醉管理尤其是腰麻-硬膜外联合麻醉具有指导意义。之前仅有一篇文章报道了一名产妇在选择性剖宫产时接受了腰麻-硬膜外联合麻醉。
