Case report: life-threatening coronary artery spasm under transversus abdominis plane block in combination with general anesthesia

Abstract Background Many cases of coronary artery spasm (CAS) during general plus epidural anesthesia have been reported. But transversus abdominis plane(TAP) block in combination with general anesthesia has not been reported to be a cause of CAS, let alone a life-threatening CAS. Case presentation...
