Incidence of postoperative symptomatic epidural hematoma in spinal decompression surgery.
OBJECT Neurological deterioration due to spinal epidural hematoma (SEH) is a rare but significant complication of spinal surgery. The frequency of hematoma evacuation after spinal surgery is reportedly 0.1%-3%. The objective of this study was to investigate the symptomatology of SEH and the frequency of evacuation for each surgical procedure after spinal decompression surgery. METHODS This is...
متن کاملWhy Cannot Suction Drains Prevent Postoperative Spinal Epidural Hematoma?
BACKGROUND Postoperative spinal epidural hematoma (POSEH) is different from spontaneous or post-spinal procedure hematoma because of the application of suction drains. However, it appeared that suction drains were not effective for prevention of POSEH in previous studies. The purpose of this study was to test our hypothesis that POSEH can be caused by hypercoagulability. METHODS This was an e...
متن کاملDelayed Postoperative Spinal Epidural Hematoma after Cervical Laminoplasty
A 56-year-old man underwent cervical laminoplasty for cervical spondylosis. On the 7th postoperative day, he suddenly felt severe neck pain, and tetraplegia developed rapidly over 1.5 hrs. Computed tomography demonstrated a huge hematoma compressing the cervical spinal cord. Clot was evacuated 3 hrs after the onset of symptoms. The patient's postoperative course was uneventful. His blood pressu...
متن کاملPostoperative Spinal Epidural Hematoma: Risk Factor and Clinical Outcome
We report a series of epidural hematomas which cause neurologic deterioration after spinal surgery, and have taken risk factors and prognostic factors into consideration. We retrospectively reviewed the database of 3720 cases of spine operation in a single institute over 7 years (1998 April- 2005 July). Nine patients who demonstrated neurologic deterioration after surgery and required surgical ...
متن کاملSpinal Epidural Hematoma
Spinal epidural hematoma (SEH) comprises a heterogeneous group of disorders with the final common result of hemorrhage in the spinal epidural space. In this review, the English language literature on SEH is examined. SEH may be acute or chronic, spontaneous, posttraumatic, or iatrogenic. Its occurrence appears to be particularly associated with acquired coagulopathy from medications and disease...
