|
There have been seldom described about acute spontaneous spinal epidural hematomas in young adults without coagulation disorder or trauma. We report two cases of spontaneous cervical epidural hematomas in young adults diagnosed with magnetic resonance image. We tried to point out the necessity of early detection and prompt surgical decompression of hematoma, with thorough description of cases and review of various literatures. |
