Epidural Hematoma After Spinal Anesthesia in a Patient with Undiagnosed Epidural Lymphoma

Abstract

We report a case of a women developing epidural bleeding 3 wk after performing an uneventful spinal anesthesia for removal of a wire loop in her left knee. Pathological examination of the neurosurgically removed hematoma revealed a highly vascularized epidural centroblastic non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
