Abstract
Neuraxial anesthesia is preferred over general anesthesia in obstetric patients to avoid airway manipulation, aspiration, and maternal-fetal transfer of medications; however, a sudden sympathetic block is generally avoided in patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM). The case of a 31-year-old G2P0010 with HOCM with severe resting left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction and systolic anterior motion of the mitral valve undergoing a cerclage under choroprocaine spinal anesthesia is presented. Risks and benefits of general versus neuraxial anesthesia, and epidural versus spinal anesthesia, in this specific setting are reviewed.
期刊介绍：
A & A Case Reports, our new online journal publishing Case Reports, related Editorial Commentary, and Correspondence. Anesthesia & Analgesia 1 and Anesthesiology 2 recently announced that they were suspending publication of Case Reports. One reason is that Case Reports typically reduce the Impact Factor of a journal because they are rarely cited. Regardless of the merits of Impact Factor as a metric of journal worth, journals and their editors necessarily consider Impact Factor in strategic planning. At the same time, Case Reports are appreciated by readers for describing “real life” management of difficult or unusual cases not often encountered by practitioners. In a recent issue of Anesthesia & Analgesia, Steven Shafer1 identified many Case Reports whose publication launched productive careers dedicated to solving the puzzle posed by an unusual observation in a single patient.
