After intravenous access was obtained, 15 ml/kg of crystalloid infusion was started rapidly and 2 g of cefazolin was injected for antibiotic prophylaxis. 4 L/min of oxygen was administered via a nasal cannula. With the patient in the sitting position, full aseptic precautions were taken. CSEA using 2 ml of 0.5% isobaric bupivacaine intraspinally was applied in the midline at the L3-4 interspace. Five minutes later, the sensory block had reached the T4 dermatome and surgery was started. A 2770 g healthy girl baby was delivered. Any perioperative complications were not observed. When the sensory block was declined T10 dermatome at approximately 2 hours postoperatively, analgesia was obtained via epidural catheter with 15 ml of solution, including 3 mg morphine, 50 μg fentanyl and 0.9% NaCl. The patient was observed for 48 hours with normal neurologic and vital status without pain and discharged home on postoperative day 2. When the patient was come back to Obstetrics department for control evaluation, any complaints associated with dural puncture headache or infection were not seen.In patients with a VPS, CSEA has increased the risk of infectious complications [1]. If a CSEA is planned, strict aseptic techniques and antimicrobial prophylaxis should be complied with [1]. Therefore, CSEA was applied in our patient under the antibiotic prophylaxis and strict aseptic condition. Our aim of using CSEA was rapidly reaching to appropriate level and quality of block with spinal block, and prolonged postoperative analgesia with epidural block. Besides, general anesthesia was avoided because of encountering with the risk of the difficult airway and gastric content aspiration in a fasting patient.Consequently, if strict sterile condition and antibiotic prophylaxis are provided, CSEA can be applied as an effective and safe anesthetic method for emergency C/S in a patient with a VPS.
