病史A25-year-oldwomanwithsudden-onsetweaknessoflowerlimbs,urinaryincontinence,andsensorydisturbancefromthenipplelinedownward,8hoursafternormalvaginaldelivery
25岁女性,顺产后8小时,突发下肢无力,小便失禁,乳头水平以下感觉异常。

矢状位T1WI、T2WI及横断位T2WI示:T1-T2水平椎管内偏右侧、硬膜外可见一局限性新月形肿块,T1WI呈高信号,T2WI可见中央低信号;相应水平脊髓内见稍长T2信号影,提示局限性脊髓水肿。
增强后,T1WI矢状位扫描,病灶可见周边强化。
SpontaneousSpinalEpiduralHematoma(SSEH)
inthePostpartumPeriod
产后自发性椎管内硬膜外血肿
背景AmongtherecognizedconditionsthatcouldpredisposeonetoSSEH,pregnancyaccountsfor1%,andothersincludeanticoagulanttherapy,vascularmalformations,hemophilia,andvasculitis.
根据影像资料,考虑诊断为自发性椎管内硬膜外血肿(SSEH)。1%左右的患者由妊娠诱发发病,其他原因包括抗凝治疗、血管畸形、血友病、血管炎症等。

妊娠或产后胸腔、腹腔、盆腔内压力增高引起硬膜外无瓣膜的静脉丛破裂,是妊娠或产后SSEH的主要发病原因。另外,子宫收缩引起的循环血量增加、激素刺激血管、血液易凝状态等也是可能的致病因素。
临床表现Sudden-onsetpaininthechest-backregion,limbweaknessandsensationdisturbance,paraplegia,urinaryretention,orBrown-Sequardsyndrome
SSEH的临床症状包括:胸背部突发疼痛、下肢无力、感觉异常、截瘫、尿潴留、脊髓半切综合征等。

MRI:急性期T1WI呈等信号;T2WI呈不均匀稍高信号,内可见斑片状低信号。亚急性期,T1WI和T2WI均呈高信号。增强扫描的周边强化可能与病灶周边血供及充血有关。病灶内或病灶周围未见流空血管影,可以排除血管畸形的可能性,这也可以通过血管造影进一步检查证实。
