Abstract

Vertex epidural hematomas (VEDHs) are well known but uncommon. Their clinical presentation may be misleading and missed by routine CT axial scanning; thus, diagnosis may be delayed, with possibly fatal consequences. We report a case of acute posttraumatic paraplegia caused by a VEDH, which was evident at CT and for which the patient underwent successful surgery.
