Аннотация
PURPOSE: Arteriovenous malformations (AVM) of the spinal cord are rare. We report the successful management of a patient with a cervical spinal cord AVM undergoing Caesarean section delivery, using a spinal anaesthetic.
CLINICAL FEATURES: Based on previous radiological investigations, the patient was known to have an AVM at the third cervical level of her spinal cord. After application of monitors and intravenous administration of 1 L normal saline, a 25 g Whitacre needle was inserted into the subarachnoid space at the L3-4 interspace. Spinal anaesthesia was established with a solution consisting of hyperbaric spinal bupivacaine 12 mg, fentanyl 12.5 micrograms and epidural morphine 0.25 mg. There was no neurological deficit during hospital stay or after discharge.
CONCLUSION: The safe outcome of spinal anaesthesia for our patient is encouraging. The presence of spinal cord AVM at the cervical region is not an absolute contraindication to spinal anaesthesia.
