Severe bronchospasm during epidural anaesthesia.

C Y Wang1, G S Ong.   

Abstract

A case of severe bronchospasm occurring during epidural anaesthesia in a patient undergoing Caesarean section is described. The aetiology of the bronchospasm may have been related to sympathetic nervous blockade allowing unopposed parasympathetically mediated bronchoconstriction.
