Anesthetic Management in a Gravida with Type IV Osteogenesis Imperfecta

الملخص EN

Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is an inherited disorder of the connective tissues caused by abnormalities in collagen formation.

OI may present many challenges to the anesthesiologist.

A literature review reveals a wide range of implications, from basic positioning to management of the difficult airway.

We present the anesthetic management of a 25-year-old gravid woman with OI, fetal demise, and possible uterine rupture, admitted for an exploratory laparotomy.
