    Area of Science:

    • Anesthesiology
    • Neurosurgery
    • Nephrology

    Background:

    • Epidural catheterization is a common procedure for regional anesthesia and analgesia.
    • Accidental dural puncture or catheter malposition can lead to serious complications.

    Observation:

    • A case of unintended subdural catheterization is presented.
    • The clinical course and outcomes were compared to prior reports of subdural local anesthetic injections.

    Findings:

    • Subdural catheterization can occur during attempted epidural placement.
    • Confirmation of catheter tip location via imaging is crucial to avoid adverse events.

    Implications:

    • This case underscores the critical importance of verifying epidural catheter placement.
  • Implementing routine imaging can prevent severe neurological complications associated with malpositioned catheters.
