There is scant information in the literature regarding central neuraxial blockade in patients with previous back surgery or severe kyphoscoliosis. This report describes a 58-year-old female and an 84-year-old female with spinal instrumentation who presented for orthopedic surgery under neuraxial blockade. In both cases, multiple attempts of needle insertion using standard technique were unsuccessful, whereas spinal combined with epidural anesthesia was performed successfully using image intensifier. The anatomical considerations and difficulties in achieving reliable neuraxial blockade after spinal instrumentation are reviewed. Neuraxial blockade using image intensifier may provide less technical difficulty and a more reliable result in such patients.
