Abstract
Neurologic Sequelae after spinal anesthesia are extrenely rare, due in part to use of prepackaged and sterile kits and the small doses of local anesthectics employed.

And the patient recovered 3 days later with mild pulmonary edema and about 72 hour anterograde amnesia after symptomatic treatment.
Key Words: Accidental injection; Subarachnoid space; CNS Toxicity
