Abstract

Acute onset quadriplegia is a potentially treatable neurological emergency. Common etiologies include radiculoneuropathies, compressive and non-compressive myelopathies. Spontaneous non traumatic spinal epidural hematoma is a relatively uncommon phenomenon. Here we report an interesting patient who developed coagulopathy related spinal epidural hematoma resulting in acute painful quadriplegia as a complication of hepatitis A infection.

Keywords: Coagulopathy; Spontaneous spinal epidural hematoma; Hepatitis A; Quadriplegia.
