Abstract :
Spontaneous Spinal Epidural Hematoma (SSEH) is a rare spinal condition. Early surgical intervention
is generally indicated to prevent serious permanent neurological deficits. We encountered a case
of spontaneous spinal epidural hematomas associated with motor weakness that was treated
successfully by surgical evacuation.
