Article Synopsis
- Spontaneous spinal epidural hematomas (SSEH) are rare but serious during pregnancy, making diagnosis and treatment difficult due to potential risks to both mother and baby.
- A systematic review of the literature revealed that most patients presented with back pain in the second or third trimester and developed spinal cord dysfunction, with surgery being the common treatment approach.
- MRI is essential for diagnosis, and treatment variations depend on the patient's neurological condition and stage of pregnancy, with most patients showing improvement post-surgery.
