title: Pregnancy, labor and delivery in a woman with a damaged spinal cord.
abstract: We report here a case involving the pregnancy, labor and delivery of a woman with a damaged spinal cord. In our case, even though the cord was damaged below the Th11, continuous epidural anesthesia was needed to prevent autonomic hyperreflexia. The patient's and infant's subsequent courses were normal.
