ABSTRACT Introduction. Pre-eclampsia is a significant cause of maternal and fetal mortality and morbidity. Pre-eclampsia is characterized by hypertension (blood pressure ≥ 140/90 mmHg), oedema and amount of protein in urine 300 mg in the 24-hour, which appears after 20 weeks of gestation. Pre-eclampsia can cause complications, one of which is HELLP syndrome. This case report discusses the use of anaesthesia in a patient who underwent a cesarean section with indications for pre-eclampsia and partial HELLP syndrome.Case Presentation. A woman, 41 years old, G4P3A0 34 weeks pregnant with pre-eclampsia + syndrome HELLP will undergo emergency cesarean section with ASA IIE physical statusLabouror pain management was carried out using regional spinal anaesthesia technique, using bupivacaine 0.5% hyperbaric agent 12.5 mg. The operation lasted for 1 hour 30 minutes, with 300 ml bleeding, hemodynamically stable.Conclusion. Difficult intubation in emergency cases can be avoided by choosing of neuraxial anaesthesia technique is recommended. It will lead to better uteroplacental perfusion, good analgesia/anaesthesia quality, reducing surgical stress, reducing drugs that enter the uteroplacental circulation, and maternal psychological to be able to see the baby at birth.

Central core disease is an autosomal dominant congenital myopathy. It typically manifests as muscle weakness and developmental delay. Central core disease is also associated with malignant hyperthermia which can be developed by volatile agent or succinylcholine. Here, we are reporting a case of a 34-year-old primigravida with central core disease who underwent an emergency cesarean section under spinal anesthesia without complications.

Abstract Background We report a case in which a list of high-risk pregnant women on cloud-based business communication tools was useful in formulating an anesthetic plan for unscheduled cesarean section. Case presentation A 37-year-old woman, who had been prescribed icosapentate for hypertriglyceridemia, received an antenatal anesthetic evaluation for possible cesarean delivery, and it was agreed that the anesthetic method for emergency cesarean section was general anesthesia if the surgery would take place within 7 days after the discontinuation of the drug, and regional anesthesia if it would take place any time later. Then this agreement was uploaded on the cloud-based business communication tools, and updated until she delivered her baby via unscheduled cesarean section. Conclusions A cloud-based business communication tools was useful in formulating an anesthesia plan for a patient undergoing a cesarean delivery. However, more discussion would be needed to utilize it in security.

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.

Hemorrhage is one of the major causes of maternal death. Main causes of APH are placenta previa, placenta abruption and uterine rupture. Rare causes of placenta abruption include marginal and velamentous umbilical cord insertions. We hereby present a case of placenta abruption due to marginal umbilical cord insertions occurring on a bipartite placenta. A 40-year-old nulliparous African woman, 35 weeks pregnant consulted for dark red pervaginal bleeding, which occurred recently. Past history was unremarkable. Her pregnancy was well followed up. A recent ultrasound scan revealed a fundal inserted placenta. Physical examination revealed a fundal height of 37 cm, no uterine activity, normal fetal heart tones and a blood-stained vulva. Our diagnosis was a mild placenta abruption. An obstetrical ultrasound carried out revealed a normal pregnancy and a retroplacental blood clot of 11mm. A safe baby was born through an emergency cesarean section which revealed a normally inserted bipartite placenta with a 10% placenta detachment located on one placenta half and two cords inserted marginally. The postoperative period was uneventful and she was discharged five days after cesarean section. This case report shows that marginal cord insertion, which can lead to placenta abruption, can be also observed on a bipartite placenta.

Background: Caesarean section is the most commonly performed major surgery among women. The aims and objective of this study was to know the incidence of primary Caesarean section in multigravidas, its indications and to know the maternal and foetal outcome among these patients. Methodology: This was an observational study conducted at Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology of Darbhanga Medical College and Hospital, Laheriasarai, Bihar. Aim of the study was to study the indication, maternal and fetal outcome in primary cesarean in multiparous women. All multiparous women admitted for delivery were included in the study Results: The total number of deliveries were 3064 and cesarean section were 1026 (33%).The total number of primary cesarean section in multiparous women were 84 constituting 2.7%. In this study, majority of women were Gravida 2. 91.6% of the cases were underwent emergency cesarean section and anesthesia was spinal. Majority of patients were between age group of 22 to 27 yrs (70%). Indications for cesarean section in our study were severe oligohydroamnios (22%), fetal distress (15.4%), and breech presentation (14%), premature rupture of membrane (12%).Intra operative ndings were meconium stained liquor, post partum hemorrhage, thinned out lower segment and extension of incision. Out of 84 cases, 48 cases needed intra operative or immediate post operative blood transfusion. The post operative morbidity was present in 6 cases i.e paralytic ileus, puerperal fever, urinary tract infection and wound gaping. Majority of babies, weighed in the range of 2-3kgs (55%).Out of 84 cases 7 were causes were placenta previa, obstructed labor and fetal distress. Conclusion: Many unforeseen complications occur in women who previously had a normal vaginal delivery. It is recommended that all antenatal patients must be booked and receive proper and regular antenatal care. Also 100% deliveries in multigravida should be institutional deliveries in order to reduce maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality.
