A rare case of postpartum paraplegia due to spinal intradural hematoma

Spinal anesthesia may cause acute/subacute subdural hematomas. Here, 4-day postpartum, a 34-year-old female became paraplegic due to a subacute T12-L5 subdural hematoma documented on an MRI scan. She underwent emergent decompression, and within 3 postoperative months, regained nearly normal function.

Abstract

Spinal anesthesia may cause acute/subacute subdural hematomas. Here, 4-day postpartum, a 34-year-old female became paraplegic due to a subacute T12-L5 subdural hematoma documented on an MRI scan. She underwent emergent decompression, and within 3 postoperative months, regained nearly normal function.
