Spinal vascular events related to Behçet's disease are relatively uncommon. Deep vein thrombosis is the most frequent vascular involvement. Anticoagulant therapy is a debated issue in Behçet's disease. In this case report, we present a patient with a delayed diagnosis of Behçet's disease after development of cervical epidural hematoma following anticoagulant therapy due to deep venous thrombosi...

Traumatic basal ganglia hematoma is a rare condition defined as presence of hemorrhagic lesions in basal ganglia or adjacent structures suchas internal capsule, putamen and thalamus. Bilateral basal ganglia hematoma are among the devastating and rare condition. We herein report a 28-year old man, a victim of car-car accident who was brought to our surgical emergency room by immediate loss of co...

The prompt use of computerized tomography has significantly enhanced the early localization of traumatic posterior fossa hematoma of the brain. Consequently, timely surgical intervention has been possible before irreversible damage has set in. The result is an overall improvement in the survival of patients with this condition. The clinical presentations of 2 children who developed traumatic po...

Nerve root compression due to ligamentum flavum hematoma is extremely rare, with less than 70 cases reported in the literature. The clinical presentation and images were similar to those of spinal epidural tumors. Herein, we reported a previously healthy 64-year-old female who presented with right radicular leg pain. Neurological examination was consistent with right L5 root compression. The ma...

Spinal epidural abscesses are an uncommon cause of spinal cord injury but, depending on the size and presence of neurological deficits, urgent neurosurgical intervention may be required. We present a unique case of a patient presenting with a spinal epidural collection several days after a fall. While a spinal epidural hematoma was suspected based on the patient's history and MRI findings, a sp...
