Disease relevance of Hematoma, Epidural, Spinal

• Two patients with hemophilia and spinal epidural hematoma, who were treated successfully with serial Factor VIII infusions, are reported [1].
• A case involving spinal epidural hematoma following tissue plasminogen activator and intravenous heparin therapy administered after acute myocardial infarction is reported here [2].

High impact information on Hematoma, Epidural, Spinal

• Spinal epidural hematoma complicating active systemic lupus erythematosus [3].
• Spinal epidural hematoma associated with warfarin therapy [4].
• OBJECTIVES: To describe a patient with a spontaneous spinal epidural hematoma associated with cocaine use and to present issues related to pathogenesis and management of this potential complication [5].
• Spinal epidural hematoma due to heparin [6].
• The initial magnetic resonance image showed a spinal epidural hematoma extending from C2 to C6, with compression of the myelon [7].

Chemical compound and disease context of Hematoma, Epidural, Spinal

• Gadolinium enhancement in the center of a spinal epidural hematoma in a hemophiliac [8].
• A 54-year-old woman who was on anticoagulant treatment with acenocoumarol for a mitral prothesis developed a cervical spinal epidural hematoma, probably triggered by coughing fits together with supratherapeutic anticoagulation [9].
• Recovery after high-dose methylprednisolone and delayed evacuation: a case of spinal epidural hematoma [10].

Anatomical context of Hematoma, Epidural, Spinal

• Diagnosis of spinal epidural hematoma, extending through T11 to L2 vertebra levels, could be accurately made by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) [11].

Gene context of Hematoma, Epidural, Spinal

• Spinal epidural hematoma causing cord compression after tissue plasminogen activator and heparin therapy [12].
• Spinal epidural hematoma and ankylosing spondylitis: case report and review of the literature [13].
• Magnetic resonance imaging showed a spinal epidural hematoma between T11 and L2, which decompressed following surgery [14].
• Three patients with a spontaneous spinal epidural hematoma are presented, one of which is exceptional because it could be attributed to thrombolysis with alteplase [15].
• Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Scan demonstrated a spinal epidural hematoma at the C7-T2 level [16].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Hematoma, Epidural, Spinal

• PURPOSE: Spinal epidural hematoma following epidural anesthesia is extraordinarily rare in association with low-dose sc heparin, and the prognosis for neurologic recovery without rapid surgical decompression poor [17].
