Ventral Spinal Cord Herniation Causing Spinal Intradural Hematoma and Subarachnoid Hemorrhage: A Case Report
Ventral spinal cord herniation is a rare pathology, caused by a dural defect, that leads to progressive myelopathy. The true prevalence of ventral spinal cord herniation is unknown largely because of underdiagnosis due to its nonspecific symptoms. Though there are theories that attempt to describe h...

description | Ventral spinal cord herniation is a rare pathology, caused by a dural defect, that leads to progressive myelopathy. The true prevalence of ventral spinal cord herniation is unknown largely because of underdiagnosis due to its nonspecific symptoms. Though there are theories that attempt to describe how these dural defects are formed, the true causes of these defects are unknown. In this case report, we present a case of a 29-year-old female who had an idiopathic ventral spinal cord herniation causing an intradural hematoma and subarachnoid hemorrhage. This is the first reported case of spinal cord herniation causing hemorrhage. |
