Whole Spontaneous Spinal Epidural Hematoma
A 26-year-old male who had no underlying disease, including coagulopathy, underwent thoracotomy and bleeding control due to hemothorax. On the fifth postoperative day, paralysis of both lower limbs occurred. Urgent spine magnetic resonance imaging showed a massive anterior spinal epidural hematoma from C2 to L1 level with different signal intensities, which was suspected to be staged hemorrhage...
متن کاملAcute cervical spinal epidural hematoma with spontaneous resolution--case report.
A 54-year-old male presented with spontaneous acute epidural hematoma in the ventral cervical spine. The neurological deficits gradually improved spontaneously before surgery commenced. Serial magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated disappearance of the hematoma. He was managed conservatively and was discharged without deficits about 1 month after onset. Immediate surgical decompression may not...
متن کاملSpontaneous Cervical Spinal Epidural Hematoma: A Case Report
Spontaneous cervical epidural hematoma is an uncommon cause of acute spinal cord compression. It usually occurs with sudden cervical or interscapular pain. Typically, increasing compression of the spinal cord leads to paralysis within minutes to hours after the onset of symptoms. The authors report a case of spontaneous cervical epidural hematoma with sudden onset of left side complete hemipleg...
متن کاملSpontaneous cervical spinal epidural hematoma mimicking acute stroke.
neurologists are required to rapidly diagnose and manage patients presenting with acute neurological deficits. An awareness of stroke mimics is necessary to avoid unnecessary administration of intravenous tissue plasminogen activator, particularly in cases where thrombolysis could lead to devastating outcomes. We present a case of spontaneous cervical spinal epidural hematoma (SEH) presenting w...
متن کاملRapid and Spontaneous Resolution of Cervical Spinal Epidural Hematoma
Although prompt evacuation of the hematoma is generally the first treatment option for symptomatic spinal epidural hematoma (SHE), rapid and spontaneous resolution of SEH in clinical and radiological findings is rarely observed. Here, we describe a case of posttraumatic cervical SEH that resolved within 19 hours, as observed by computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), with...
