Hemorrhages into the structures of the central nervous system are the most life threatening among warfarin-associated complications. There are extremely few reports about spontaneous spinal epidural hematomas (SEH) associated with warfarin, methods of their timely diagnosis, treatment approaches. The authors present the first in the domestic literature case-report of warfarin-associated spontaneous SEH and the literature review.

: The number of patients presenting with warfarin-associated intracranial bleeding and needing neurosurgical intervention is growing. Prothrombin complex concentrate (PCC) is commonly used for anti-coagulation reversal before emergent surgery. We present our experience with PCC use in patients presenting with coagulopathy and needing urgent craniotomy.

Intracerebral hemorrhage is a well-known complication resulting from warfarin use; however, warfarin-associated intraspinal hematoma is very rare. Warfarin-associated intraspinal hematoma may exhibit delayed progression, and patients may present with atypical symptoms, occasionally resulting in delayed diagnosis. We report the case of a 65-year-old man who visited our emergency department (ED) with acute urinary retention.

Reports of spontaneous spinal epidural hematomas in patients using warfarin, methods of diagnostics and treatment are but few. We describe the first case of warfarin-associated spontaneous spinal epidural hematoma in this country and a literature review of this issue.

Background And Purpose: Recombinant Factor VIIa decreases hematoma growth after spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and rapidly decreases international normalized ratios in patients on warfarin but is also associated with an increased risk for thromboembolic complications. In this study, we assessed the risk of thromboembolic events in patients receiving recombinant Factor VIIa after ICH associated with warfarin treatment.
Methods: We reviewed the medical charts, laboratory data, and radiological findings of consecutive patients with anticoagulation-related hemorrhages of the central nervous system who received recombinant Factor VIIa at Mayo Clinic Rochester and Mayo Clinic Florida between 2002 and 2009.
