摘要
We report a case of technically difficult spinal anesthesia in a morbidly obese woman, which was successfully implemented under fluoroscopy. Although radiological imaging is well known to guide various regional anesthetic procedures, until now, the utility of fluoroscopic imaging to facilitate spinal anesthesia had not been reported.
