Abstract

Spinal anesthesia is considered the standard anesthetic technique for elective cesarean section, but it is contraindicated in some cases. General anesthesia in pregnant women is associated with a significant increase in frequency of complications, primarily related to airway management. In this article, we propose to use a laryngeal mask airway as an alternative to endotracheal intubation during elective operative delivery, subject to certain conditions. We present two clinical cases of general combined anesthesia with the installation of a second-generation laryngeal mask airway and mechanical ventilation — in a patient with the Arnold-Chiari type I malformation and in a patient with IV grade scoliosis.
