Dystrophia myotonica: combined spinal-epidural anaesthesia for caesarean section.

Abstract:

:Patients with dystrophia myotonica requiring caesarean section pose significant problems for the anaesthetist. This report describes the successful use of a combined spinal-epidural technique for anaesthesia and postoperative analgesia in such a patient.
