At 38 weeks gestation, she was admitted for an induction of labor with neuraxial analgesia, but she subsequently had to be delivered via cesarean section under general anesthesia. We describe the anesthetic implications of SMA on labor and delivery management and review the available literature.Keywords: muscular atrophy, cesarean section, general and regional anesthesia http://www.dovepress.com/anesthetic-management-of-spinal-muscle-atrophy-type-ii-in-a-parturient-a7017
