摘要

Purpose: Spinal epidural hematoma is a rare but important disease as it can be a stroke mimic. Our aim was to investigate the clinical characteristics of patients with an activated stroke code and spinal epidural hematoma. Methods: Patients with an activated stroke code were examined retrospectively. Patients with spinal epidural hematoma were evaluated with further neurological examinations and neuroimaging. Results: Of 2866 patients with an activated stroke code, spinal epidural hematoma was detected in 5 (0.2%, 63-79 years, 2 men). In all 5 cases, hematoma was located in the unilateral dorsal region of the spinal canal and spread to 5-9 vertebral segments at the C1-T3 level. None of the patients had a medical history of head or neck injury, coagulopathy, or use of anti-thrombotic agents. All of the patients had occipital, neck, and/or back pain, and their hemiparesis occurred simultaneously or within 1 h after the onset of pain. Hyperalgesia ipsilateral to the hematoma was observed in 1 patient, hypoalgesia contralateral to the hematoma was observed in 1, and quadriparesis and bilateral hypoalgesia were observed in 1. The hematomas spontaneously decreased in size in 4 patients, and cervical laminectomy was performed in the other patient. In the 1860 patients with an activated stroke code and spontaneous eye opening, the sensitivity of pain as a predictor of spinal epidural hematoma was 100%, with a specificity of 88.7%, and positive predictive value of 2.3%. Conclusion: Patients with spinal epidural hematoma could present with clinical characteristics mimicking ischemic stroke. Spinal epidural hematoma should be differentiated in patients treated under stroke code activation.
