epidural ultrasound

During pregnancy, the optimum puncture site availableon the skin for epidural space cannulation was smaller, thesoft-tissue channel between the spinal processes was narrower,and the skin–epidural space distance was greater. Theepidural space was narrower and deformed by the tissue changes.The visibility of the ligamentum flavum, of the dura mater andof the epidural space decreased significantly during pregnancy.
