Abstract
- Continuous epidural analgesia has been used widely for treatment of acute abdominal postoperative pain. Neurologic complications related to epidural analgesia occur infrequently but may be caused by various chemical, mechanical, ischemic or idiopathic factors. We report a case of abdominal hysterectomy in which unilateral lower extremity paralysis occurred after continuous epidural analgesia.
