Anaesthesia in a parturient with systemic mastocytosis.
Revista española de anestesiología y reanimación. 2022 June 25
Mastocytosis is characterized by clonal expansion of mast cells, with abnormal accumulation in different organs. Perioperatively, numerous stimuli may lead to the release of vasoactive substances by mast cells. Parturients with systemic mastocytosis pose a challenge to the anesthesiologist: on one hand, the pain and stress of labor may lead to greater mast cell activation and, on the other, the administration of drugs that may possibly trigger the release of mast cell mediators. The authors describe a case of a 34-year-old pregnant woman with systemic mastocytosis who requests labor analgesia. An epidural analgesia was performed after induction of labor, after considering anesthetic particularities. The epidural procedure, labor and delivery were uneventful. A review of systemic mastocytosis is provided and its anesthetic considerations are discussed.
