Use of neuraxial block in a patient with motor neuron disease is controversial. We describe the anaesthetic management by epidural anaesthesia of a patient with Kennedy's disease, a rare lower motor neuron disease characterized by progressive weakness and wasting of limbs and bulbar muscles. The perioperative course was uneventful, and there was no exacerbation of neurologic signs or symptoms. We suggest that a patient with Kennedy's disease may be successfully managed by epidural anaesthesia for surgical internal urethrotomy.
