Delayed-onset paralysis induced by spontaneous spinal epidural hematoma communicated with hematoma in the paraspinal muscle in a 6-month-old girl: a case report.
Child's Nervous System : ChNS : Official Journal of the International Society for Pediatric Neurosurgery 2018 September 9
Spontaneous spinal epidural hematoma (SSEH) very rarely develops in infants younger than 1 year old. To our knowledge, no previous case of delayed-onset paralysis induced by SSEH communicated with hematoma in the paraspinal muscle has been reported in the literature. The authors present the case of a 6-month-old girl with a tumor mass on her back who developed a paresis of her bilateral lower limbs. On spinal magnetic resonance imaging, the epidural mass appeared to be a dumbbell type and communicated with the mass in the paraspinal muscle through T12/L1 intervertebral foramen at the right side. After excision of the mass in the paraspinal muscle, hemi-laminectomy of T10-L3 was performed. No solid lesion was also present in the spinal canal and it was found to be an epidural hematoma. No malignancy was observed on pathological examination, and vascular and nerve system tumors were negative. When a tumor mass suddenly develops on the back of an infant and motor impairment of the lower limbs develops as the mass gradually enlarges, differential diagnosis should be performed taking SSEH into consideration.
