    AbstractA 36-year-old, 204-kg parturient with a past medical history of Factor V Leiden requiring enoxaparin therapy developed a postdural puncture headache. With careful coordination of her enoxaparin dosing, an epidural blood patch was successfully performed. Performance of a blood patch in patients taking enoxaparin involves the withholding of the medication for a specific period.Copyright 2004 Elsevier Inc.
