Is epidural anesthesia safe for cesarean section in a patient with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy?
Epidural anesthesia can be safely used for cesarean section in patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy if preoperative severity is understood and intraoperative hemodynamics are closely monitored.
May support epidural use in monitored HOCM cesarean cases; hypothesis-generating and requires larger prospective validation.
