Epidural anaesthesia for bilateral inguinal herniorrhaphy in Eisenmenger's syndrome.

The successful management of a patient with Eisenmenger's syndrome undergoing bilateral herniorrhaphy is described, and some of the anaesthetic problems associated with this condition are considered. The case is reported because epidural anaesthesia is performed rarely in these patients. The use of subcutaneous heparin, the level of monitoring required, and the value of pulse oximetry are also discussed.
