Acute hypertensive response to prostaglandin F2 alpha during anesthesia administration. A case report.

Abstract	Parenteral administration of prostaglandins in the F2 alpha family, agents with known vasoconstrictive properties, is useful in the control of postpartum hemorrhage. Hemodynamic responses in this setting are usually modest. We treated a patient for a transient but very severe hypertensive response during the administration of general anesthesia.
