Аннотация
INTRODUCTION: Spinal epidural hematomas are uncommon in children. The diagnosis can be elusive as most cases present without a history of trauma, while symptoms can be atypical.
CASE REPORT: We encountered a 35-month-old male presenting with nonspecific symptoms and no history of trauma. He later developed unilateral miosis and ptosis; MRI discovered a subacute cervicothoracic epidural which was promptly evacuated. The patient made an excellent recovery.
COCLUSIONS: We emphasize the frequent absence of identifiable trauma and the importance of thorough imaging when this entity is suspected. Miosis and ptosis, likely representing a partial Horner syndrome, is an extremely rare presentation, this being one of the only reported cases.
