Unrepaired Maternal Vein of Galen Malformation in Pregnancy: A Case Report.
We present a case of a pregnant patient with an unrepaired vein of Galen malformation (VGAM) and left ventricular (LV) dilation. Patients with VGAM lesions typically present during childhood with cardiac failure or developmental delay prompting embolization. Therefore, it is highly unusual for an adult to present with an unrepaired lesion.1 It poses challenges for obstetric and anesthetic management during pregnancy and delivery to reduce the risk of heart failure, arrhythmia, and intracranial hemorrhage. Our patient safely delivered a term neonate by cesarean delivery with neuraxial analgesia at a Level IV Maternal Care Center.
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.
