Abstract
Spontaneous spinal epidural hematoma (SSEH) is a rare neurological emergency affecting the spinal cord. The etiology of SSEH is unknown, but it may occur due to using anticoagulants and antiplatelet agents, which are commonly used to treat vascular diseases. Because of its rarity and non-specific initial symptoms, early and accurate diagnosis can be difficult, potentially negatively impacting a patient's survival and quality of life. In this report, we present the case of a young male patient with SSEH who had no comorbidities, did not use anticoagulants, and presented with sudden-onset neck pain without predisposing factors. Regarding survival and prognosis, postoperative patient follow-up is equally important as prompt diagnosis and treatment of SSEH.
