Spinal anaesthesia for caesarean delivery in a parturient with babesiosis and Lyme disease.
Anaesthesia. 2012; (2): 180-3
We present a case of a parturient with babesiosis and Lyme disease who was scheduled for elective caesarean section. The caesarean section was performed under spinal anaesthesia, and the patient had a coronary artery dissection 4 days postoperatively. Neuraxial anaesthesia and possible mechanisms for the coronary artery dissection in a patient with babesiosis and Lyme disease are discussed.
