Abstract
Takayasu's arteritis (TA) is a chronic progressive pan-endarteritis of mainly aorta and its main branches. It affects predominantly younger women. Pregnancy doesn't affect the inflammatory condition much but it increases the risk of exacerbation of hypertension in women with pre existing hypertension before pregnancy. Because of the diversity and variable degrees of organ dysfunction, anaesthesia for these patients is challenging and not standardized. We present the successful anesthetic management of a 26-year-old woman having TA posted for emergency cesarean section by using spinal anaesthesia.
