Detailed pre anaesthetic evaluation, risk counselling and a tailored approach were<br>employed to address anatomical and physiological challenges. The procedure was<br>uneventful; however a delayed regression of sensory and motor block was observed<br>post operatively.<br>Conclusion: neuraxial anaesthesia, despite challenges, can be safely administered in<br>parturient with spinal deformities through meticulous planning and monitoring. This<br>case highlights of individual anesthetic approaches in complex clinical scenarios.</p> |
