Limitations of the use of pressure waves to verify correct epidural needle position in dogs [PDF]
The use of pressure waves to confirm the correct position of the epidural needle has been described in several domestic species and proposed as a valid alternative to standard methods, namely, control radiographic exam and fluoroscopy. The object of this

EXTRADURAL HAEMATOMA AFTER CONTINUOUS EXTRADURAL ANAESTHESIA
We report a case of extradural haematoma occurring after extradural anaesthesia in an anticoagulated patient. The diagnosis was confirmed by magnetic resonance imaging and the haematoma was evacuated surgically. A search of the literature revealed only five previous reports of extradural haematoma in association with extradural anaesthesia.
