Abstract
Peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) is a rare disease of unknown etiology but serious form of cardiac failure affecting women in the last month of pregnancy or during the first 5 months post-partum. Anesthetic management of such cases is a challenge due to the increased risk of various perioperative complications. We report the successful anesthetic management of emergency lower segment caesarean section in a patient with PPCM using low dose spinal anesthesia.
