Gorham–Stout disease (GSD) is a rare bone condition characterized by osteolysis, angiomatosis, and lymphangiomatosis. This paper presents a case, in which a 38-year-old pregnant female with GSD underwent cesarean delivery due to a low-lying placenta. Her medical history, which included a previous surgical intervention for an intraoral mass attributed to GSD and a course of radiotherapy, suggested potential difficulties in both securing the airway and instituting neuraxial anesthesia, as well as potential complications, including perioperative bleeding. In this case, tailored anesthetic management strategies and interdisciplinary collaboration helped achieve optimal outcomes for the mother and successful delivery of a healthy baby. In particular, combined spinal and epidural anesthesia avoided the need for GA, and provided a rapid onset and titratable anesthesia with minimal systemic effects. Furthermore, vigilant monitoring of hemodynamic parameters was also paramount in mitigating the risks associated with both GSD and pregnancy itself.
