| description | Pregnancy in a patient with Marfan syndrome is associated with risks, including cardiovascular complications. The hemodynamic changes of pregnancy during delivery are deleterious to Marfan syndrome patients. This case describes a Marfan syndrome parturient with dilated aortic root >45 mm who underwent neuraxial anesthesia and cesarean delivery. Anesthetic management focused on reducing hypertension and shear forces on the ascending aorta. A combined spinal-epidural with a reduced dose of hyperbaric bupivacaine was utilized for cesarean delivery. Multidisciplinary approaches are vital in the management of Marfan syndrome pregnancy and cardiovascular complications must be considered when planning for delivery and postpartum management. Anesthetic management must consider the hemodynamic changes in pregnancy and severity of Marfan syndrome cardiovascular involvement in the parturient as well as neonatal risks. Guideline development concerning anesthetic management for both the timing of delivery and aortic repair postpartum would be beneficial to Marfan syndrome parturients. |
