Abstract

Non-traumatic spinal epidural haematoma is a rare complication of haemophilia. We report a seven-month-old boy who presented with symptomatic spinal epidural haematoma. He was found to have a hemophilia B trait, and after factor IX replacement, his neurological signs were stabilized and follow-up MRI demonstrated rapid resolution of the haematoma. This illustrative case suggests that surgical intervention can be deferred as the first step in treating spinal epidural haematoma in a haemophilic infant.

Blood Clotting Disorders

Thrombophilia includes conditions with increased tendency for excessive blood clotting. Blood clotting occurs when the body has insufficient amounts of specialized proteins that make blood clot and stop bleeding. Here is the latest research on blood clotting disorders.
