  • Title: Spinal subdural haematoma: an unusual complication of lumbar puncture.
    Author: Hurt RW, Shaw MD, Russell JA.
    Journal: Surg Neurol; 1977 Oct; 8(4):296-7. PubMed ID: 898011.
    Abstract:
    A case in which a spinal subdural haematoma obscured the diagnosis of spinal stenosis is described. The haematoma resulted as a complication of the lumbar puncture necessary for the myelogram. No other aetiological factors were found, but it is suggested that this condition may become more frequent as the result of iatrogenic haemostatic defects.
