This study presents two cases of spontaneous spinal epidural hematomas, highlighting their unusual presentation and successful surgical outcomes. Early diagnosis and prompt surgical intervention are crucial for good recovery in these rare neurological events.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Neurosurgery
  • Spinal Cord Medicine

Background:

  • Spinal epidural hematomas (SEHs) are rare collections of blood in the epidural space.
  • Spontaneous SEHs, without identifiable causes like trauma or surgery, are even rarer.
  • Atypical subacute presentations can delay diagnosis and treatment.

Observation:

  • Two cases of spontaneous spinal epidural hematomas with atypical subacute clinical manifestations are detailed.
  • Patients presented with neurological deficits that evolved over a subacute timeframe.
  • Initial diagnostic imaging was critical for identifying the hematoma and its location.

Findings:

  • Surgical evacuation of the hematoma led to good clinical recovery in both cases.
  • Prompt surgical intervention is associated with favorable neurological outcomes.

  • The study underscores the importance of considering SEH in the differential diagnosis of subacute spinal syndromes.

    • Implications:

    • This case series contributes to understanding the clinical spectrum of spontaneous SEHs.
    • Highlights the necessity of timely diagnosis and surgical management for optimal patient outcomes.
    • Emphasizes the role of neurosurgical intervention in managing spinal epidural hematomas.
