Abstract

To avoid fetal exposure to polypharmacy and protection of maternal airway, regional anesthesia is usually preferred in pregnancy. Here, we report a case of 20 year old primigravida with 13±2weeks of gestation, diagnosed as a case of left ovarian cyst posted for emergency laprotomy done under combined spinal epidural anesthesia.
