Successful pregnancy and delivery in a patient with Carney complex: implications for anesthesiologists.

Abstract
Carney complex is an autosomal dominant condition with widespread manifestations, including cardiac myxomas, nerve sheath tumors, and endocrinopathies. Although often associated with infertility, there are several reports of successful pregnancies in patients with Carney complex. However, none of the previous reports describe anesthetic considerations. Herein, we present a patient with Carney complex who successfully delivered vaginally with labor epidural analgesia.
