Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Pregnancies complicated by severe thoracolumbar scoliosis may be affected by obstetric and cardiovascular complications. This case report of a pregnant woman with severe thoracolumbar scoliosis includes extensive documentation of complications by pulmonary function studies and peripartum arterial blood gas analysis. The differences between the physiologic changes of normal pregnancies and those of pregnancies with scoliosis are described.
