Abstract

Spinal epidural hematomas (SEH) are a rare form of hematoma affecting the nervous axis. Spontaneous epidural hematomas are defined as the presence of blood in the epidural space without any known cause. They may be associated with coagulopathies or arteriovenous malformations. HSSE can lead to disabling neurological deficits. Imaging and rapid intervention should be initiated as soon as a patient presents with symptoms suggestive of HGSS. We report the case of a 36-year-old patient who presented with SEH in a setting of acute spinal cord compression.
