Massive Spinal Subdural Hematoma and Subarachnoid Hemorrhage in a Patient Receiving Oral Anticoagulant Therapy
Özet
Introduction: We present a rare clinical condition of concomitant spinal subdural hematoma and cranial subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) related to oral anticoagulant therapy. Case Report: In this report, we present the case of a 78-year-old female who was brought by an ambulance to the emergency department with sudden onset neurological deficit, which was eventually diagnosed as a simultaneous spinal subdural hematoma and SAH. Conclusion: The coagulation profile of patients should be screened in the context of anticoagulant therapy in appropriate or short time periods; an early clinical intervention will result in a greater likelihood of the patient's recovery.
