Abstract (English)  :

Abscess is a rare complication of epidural analgesia that may occur post-partum. A case is described where a lumbar epidural abscess initially presented with back and leg pain 7 days after seemingly uneventful block for labour and forceps delivery of twins. Definitive diagnosis of abscess was delayed until 5 days later when neurological sequelae became apparent. Despite surgical evacuation, recovery was delayed and incomplete. The importance of prompt diagnosis and the involvement of anaesthetic personnel are emphasised.
