- Abstract:
- A neonate with chromosomal 9 abnormality and omphalocele received a lumbar epidural catheter after laparotomy. Several attempts were needed to establish this catheter. Bleeding occurred from the operative wound after surgery. Using an epidural infusion with ropivacaine 0.1% for 48 h postoperative pain relief was sufficient. Four days after epidural catheter removal, dysfunction of the sacral parasympathetic nerves was noted. Motor and sensor function of the lower limbs were unaffected. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a localized intraspinal haematoma in the lower lumbar region.
