Perioperative management of patients with corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) can be extremely challenging in order to keep the balance between providing optimal medical care and protecting health-care providers from the risk of infection. We report a 37-year-old COVID-19 patient undergoing an emergency cesarean section.
