AbstractWe report a patient with anemia and hypoalbuminemia who developed decubitus ulcer along the epidural catheter. A 35-year-old woman underwent cesarean section under combined spinal-epidural anesthesia. Erosive and erythematous skin lesions along the epidural catheter were noted 48 hours after insertion of the epidural catheter. The skin lesions were thought to be decubitus ulcer along the epidural catheter due to mechanical pressure caused by fixation of the catheter with an adhesive tape after prolonged supine position.
