Intrauterine fetal death and maternal shock occurred as a result of a type‐1 hypersensitivity
reaction following antibiotic prophylaxis in a cesarean section. Amniotic fluid embolism may
mimic the condition. The ability to diagnose and treat such an event as early as possible is
necessary in all maternity centers. The selection of antibiotic regimen and the type of
anesthesia should be individualized depending upon the existing facilities and the patient's
profile, especially in a resource‐scarce developing country.
Abstract
Intrauterine fetal death and maternal shock occurred as a result of a type‐1 hypersensitivity reaction following antibiotic prophylaxis in a cesarean section. Amniotic fluid embolism may mimic the condition. The ability to diagnose and treat such an event as early as possible is necessary in all maternity centers. The selection of antibiotic regimen and the type of anesthesia should be individualized depending upon the existing facilities and the patient's profile, especially in a resource‐scarce developing country.
