The authors report on two cases of spontaneous spinal epidural hematomas. The clinical and radiological (CT, MRI) features as well as the pathogenesis of this rare disease are discussed in comparison with the literature. The authors emphasize the necessity for early diagnosis and treatment as the condition can compromise the functional and even vital prognosis of the patient.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D008279	Magnetic Resonance Imaging	Non-invasive method of demonstrating internal anatomy based on the principle that atomic nuclei in a strong magnetic field absorb pulses of radiofrequency energy and emit them as radiowaves which can be reconstructed into computerized images. The concept includes proton spin tomographic techniques.

D006407	Hematoma, Epidural, Cranial	Accumulation of blood in the EPIDURAL SPACE between the SKULL and the DURA MATER, often as a result of bleeding from the MENINGEAL ARTERIES associated with a temporal or parietal bone fracture. Epidural hematoma tends to expand rapidly, compressing the dura and underlying brain. Clinical features may include HEADACHE; VOMITING; HEMIPARESIS; and impaired mental function.
