Severe flaccid paraplegia accompanied by extensive sensory loss after epidural anesthesia administered for labor and delivery occurred in a previously healthy 24-year-old primagravida. Recovery was virtually complete after 16 months. The cause of the neurologic deficits may have been the 1.5 percent benzyl alcohol preservative contained in an 0.9 percent saline solution used for postdelivery epidural injection.
一名既往健康的24岁初产妇在分娩时接受硬膜外麻醉后出现严重弛缓性截瘫，并伴有广泛感觉丧失。16个月后几乎完全恢复。神经功能缺损的原因可能是分娩后硬膜外注射所用的0.9%盐溶液中含有的1.5%苯甲醇防腐剂。
