Case ReportsThe epidural dorsomedian septum as a possible cause for unilateral anaesthesia in an infant.
Unilateral epidural anaesthesia occurring in an infant is reported. An epidurogram revealed the presence of a midline structure suggestive of the dorsomedian septum. Epidural anatomy is reviewed and implications for threading epidural catheters in infants are discussed.
