Prevention And Treatment

Regional anaesthesia is preferred by most anaesthetists for the majority of caesarean sections. The major advantage of regional anaesthesia is the avoidance of maternal morbidity and mortality associated with general anaesthesia. The importance of this can be seen in the most recent Report of Confidential Enquires into Maternal Deaths in which it was reported that of the direct maternal deaths attributed to anaesthesia, all six were associated with difficulties during general anaesthesia. Although a number of regional anaesthesia techniques are available, spinal anaesthesia is particularly popular because it is fast, easy to perform and provides excellent intraoperative analgesia.

We describe a patient with severe scoliosis for which corrective surgery was performed at the age of 12. During a previous caesarean section under general anaesthesia pseudocholinesterase deficiency was discovered. Ultrasound guided spinal anaesthesia was performed enabling a second caesarean section under loco-regional anaesthesia.

Maternal Morbidity And Mortality

Morbid adherent placenta (MAP), also known as placenta accreta, increta or percreta, is one of the main causes of maternal morbidity and mortality. Its incidence has noticeably increased in the last few decades, a fact directly related to the increase in caesarean sections. There is a close relation between iterative caesarean sections and MAP. This connection is of vital importance, since caesarean rates have risen worldwide, especially in the countries where there is the possibility of caesarean section on demand.

Cecal Perforation

Acute colonic pseudo-obstruction is rare but not very un-common to nd post LSCS, if diagnosed late can cause severe maternal morbidity and mortality. Surgical intervention is must if diagnosed late, and is associated with long term morbidity to the patient. In this case, signs of bowel perforation were noted and laparotomy performed, ndings suggestive of cecal perforation were seen. Although uncommon after a Caesarean section but diagnosis of Ogilvie’s syndrome should be kept in mind.
