“…No existen metaanálisis ni guías clínicas que permitan orientarnos mejor y con buena evidencia en la administración de la analgesia-anestesia neuroaxial de las pacientes con espina bífida. La literatura médica sólo se refiere a reportes de casos aislados o grupos pequeños de pacientes (Tabla I) (12)(13)(14)(15)(16). Se ha reportado uso de analgesia-anestesia epidural, caudal, espinal, bloqueo simpático paravertebral, bloqueo paracervical y uso de analgesia controlada por paciente (PCA) endovenosa en base a opioides.…”

Congenital lipomatous malformations of spinal cord constitute a diverse group of lesions and lipomyelocele is one of them. Here, we report a case of congenital lipomyelocele in a male child who presented at 7 years of age. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a lesion in lumbosacral region. The patient was operated and histologic examination diagnosed the case to be lipomyelocele. But after 8 years, recurrence of the lesion occurred and MRI revealed the lesion at the same location. This time histologic examination detected another new component (schwannomatous areas) in the lesion. The child was on 1-year follow-up which was uneventful.

“…There have been case reports of neuraxial blockades in patients with spina bifida[1–4] and lipomyelocele,[5] but there have been no documented reports of epidural catheter placement through an overlying mass or lipoma. We report a case of successful epidural catheter placement through a lower back lipoma for vascular bypass surgery of the lower extremity.…”
