Risk of Epidural Hematoma after Neuraxial Techniques in Thrombocytopenic Parturients

Abstract

The number of thrombocytopenic parturients in the literature who received neuraxial techniques without complication has been significantly increased. The risk of epidural hematoma associated with neuraxial techniques in parturients at a platelet count less than 70,000 mm remains poorly defined due to limited observations.
