Key result
Unilateral epidural analgesia occurred repeatedly in a parturient across three successive pregnancies, with clinical and radiological evidence presented to explain its likely cause.
The case report highlights potential causes and provides clinical and radiological evidence for repeated unilateral epidural blockade in successive pregnancies.
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
Alerts to possible anatomical variants in recurrent unilateral epidural; leaves open systematic imaging evaluation in future cases.
Unilateral epidural analgesia occurring in a parturient three times in successive pregnancies is reported. Possible causes are reviewed, and clinical and radiological evidence in support of the most likely explanation are presented.
