Popis: Abstract Background In patients with Fontan circulation, hemorrhage can cause life-threatening circulatory collapse, since Fontan circulation strongly depends on the preload. Furthermore, parturients with placenta accreta spectrum are at a high risk of rapid and massive hemorrhage. Herein, we report the case of an intra-aortic balloon occlusion used for a Fontan-palliated parturient with placenta increta with successful anesthetic management. Case presentation A 35-year-old-female with Fontan circulation diagnosed with placenta increta underwent a cesarean hysterectomy. The main goal during anesthetic management was to maintain sufficient preload. Infrarenal intra-aortic balloon occlusion was used to reduce intraoperative hemorrhage. The hemodynamic changes caused were well tolerated in this case. Conclusions Intra-aortic balloon occlusion was used in a Fontan-palliated parturient with placenta increta with successful anesthetic management.
