Spinal extradural haematoma or spinal epidural hematoma is bleeding into the epidural space in the spine. These may arise spontaneously , or as a rare complication of epidural anaesthesia or of surgery. Symptoms usually include back pain which radiates to the arms or the legs. They may cause pressure on the spinal cord or cauda equina, which may present as pain, muscle weakness, or dysfunction of the bladder and bowel.
