Continuous spinal anesthesia is an interesting alternative in patients at high cardiac risk. We report the case of a patient who was scheduled to undergo prostatic adenomectomy. The pre-anesthetic consultation revealed a tight aortic stenosis. In the absence of therapeutic options at the aortic level, it was decided to operate this patient under continuous spinal anesthesia. This technique consists of placing a catheter intrathecally allowing the injection of a low dose of local anesthetic.our unit did not have a continuous spinal anesthesia kit, an epidural anesthesia kit was used as an alternative.
