Int J Emerg Med
September 2024
Acute and Emergency Care, Khoo Teck Puat Hospital, 90 Yishun Central, Singapore, 768828, Singapore.
Article Synopsis
- Cervical epidural hematoma (CEH) is a rare condition where blood accumulates in the epidural space of the neck, potentially compressing the spinal cord, with unusual cases linked to neck strain and acupuncture.
- Two case presentations illustrate how these uncommon causes led to serious symptoms: one elderly woman showed weakness after a fall, and a younger man experienced sudden numbness shortly after treatment.
- The cases underscore the necessity for medical professionals to consider these rare causes for timely diagnosis and treatment to prevent further complications.

Prevalence of gestational thyrotoxicosis in Asian women evaluated in the 8th to 14th weeks of pregnancy: correlations with total and free beta human chorionic gonadotrophin.
Clin Endocrinol (Oxf)
September 2001
Department of Pathology, Singapore General Hospital, Singapore, Singapore.
Objectives: The prevalence of gestational transient thyrotoxicosis (GTT) in Europeans evaluated during the 8th to 14th weeks of pregnancy is 2-3%. However, there is evidence that GTT may be more common in some Asian populations. The aims of this study were to evaluate the prevalence of thyroid hormone abnormalities in Asian women in their 8th to 14th weeks of pregnancy using highly sensitive free T4 and TSH assays and to correlate these with total and free beta-hCG levels.
