Resumo: In the last few decades there has been a widespread of the use of central neuraxial blockages (CNB) in obstetric patients. The complications from the CNB range from the bothersome to the crippling and life-threatening. Spinal epidural hematoma (SEH) is one of such severe complications. A 29-year-old pregnant woman at term, ASA II, was proposed for a caesarean section after inadequate progression of labour. Spinal anesthesia was administered and surgery was uneventful. The patient recovered from the motor and sensitive blockage but, twelve hours after the procedure, she started complaining of paresthesia over the lower limbs that progressed to paraplegia. An urgent magnetic resonance revealed a dorsally located SEH extending from D7 to D9, remote from the site of needle puncture. The patient was transferred and an emergency laminectomy and evacuation of the hematoma was conducted. One year after the event she remained with neurological deficits.

As complicações associadas ao BNE oscilam entre o incomodativo e o extremamente grave e potencialmente letal. O Hematoma epidural espinhal (HES) é uma das complicações mais graves. Uma grávida de 29 anos de idade em termo de gestação, ASA II, foi proposta para cesariana após progressão inadequada do trabalho de parto. Foi realizado um bloqueio subaracnoideu e a cirurgia decorreu sem intercorrências. A parturiente recuperou do bloqueio motor e sensitivo mas, doze horas após o procedimento, começou a referir parestesia nos membros inferiores que progrediram para paraplegia posteriormente. A ressonância magnética realizada revelou um HES localizado a nível dorsal, de D7 a D9, localização remota do local de punção com agulha. A doente foi transferida para realização de laminectomia e evacuação do hematoma. Um ano após o evento permanecia com deficit neurológicos.Sociedade Portuguesa de Anestesiologia2017-01-17T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttps://doi.org/10.25751/rspa.9342eng0871-6099Vilaça, Maria João LeiteFaísco, AnaReis, Eduardo BeirãoAlexandre, GilTeixeira, Maria do Carmoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2022-09-23T15:34:42Zoai:ojs.revistas.rcaap.pt:article/9342Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T16:04:11.169656Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
