Atraumatic Spinal Epidural Hematoma as Initial Presentation of Hemophilia A in an Infant. 2021

Caitlin E Crumm, and Erin E Crotty, and Catherine M Albert, and Amanda B Blair, and Jeffrey P Otjen, and Kenneth W Feldman

Hemophilia A is characterized by deficiency of factor VIII. We present a unique, illustrative case of an infant with a short history of neck pain and irritability without neurological deficits who was found to have a spinal epidural hematoma. The subsequent investigation for the etiology, including workup for nonaccidental trauma, led to a diagnosis of severe hemophilia A.
