Horner's syndrome and weakness of upper limb after epidural anaesthesia for caesarean section.

Horner's syndrome is not rare during labour epidural analgesia or in pregnant patients receiving epidural anaesthesia for caesarean section as thought previously. It occurs due to blockade of sympathetic fibres supplying the eye and face area. Most of the times it is a benign and self-limiting condition; however, it may become a serious systemic manifestation.

These symptoms were transient and resolved spontaneously without any treatment.
