Abstract
Sarcoidosis, a rare multisystem disease, often occurs in women of chil dbearing age. The disease, which may be improved or exacerbated by pre gnancy, presents unique considerations to the anesthesiologist. These considerations are illustrated by the case presented here of complicat ed sarcoidosis in a parturient who underwent cesarean section. (C) 199 7 Elsevier Science Inc.
