Horner's Syndrome Following Dural Puncture Epidural Analgesia for Labor.

Horner's syndrome has been identified as an adverse outcome associated with the administration of epidural analgesia during labor. This syndrome is attributed to the upward spread of the local anesthetic, which may extend toward the superior cervical sympathetic chain. This process could disrupt the sympathetic pathways supplying the facial and ocular areas. We describe a case of a 26-year-old primigravid female with transient isolated Horner's syndrome following dural puncture epidural analgesia during labor.
