Abstract
A 37-year-old woman with Churg-Strauss syndrome underwent cesarean section under combined spinal-epidural anesthesia. Churg-Strauss syndrome is a rare diffuse vasculitis accompanied by severe asthma. Anesthesia was performed uneventfully, but there were several issues of concern regarding the perioperative management of this syndrome.
