Dural ectasia: a likely cause of inadequate spinal anaesthesia in two parturients with Marfan's syndrome
Abstract
We report two cases of Caesarean section in patients with Marfan's syndrome where continuous subarachnoid anaesthesia failed to provide an adequate surgical block. This was possibly because of dural ectasia, which was confirmed by a computed tomography scan in both cases.
