An Atypical Presentation of Spinal Epidural Hematoma-Case Report and Literature Review

Abstract

Spinal epidural hematoma (SEH) is a rare neurological condition with challenging clinical management [1], especially in emergency situations in which there are misleading atypical features that simulate other more common diagnoses [2]. In this article, we describe a case of SEH diagnosed in our emergency department presenting with atypical history and findings. This report will be followed by discussion and review of the relevant medical literature.
