Abstract

Spontaneous spinal epidural hemorrhage (SSEH) warrants urgent surgical treatment in most cases. Which patients will benefit most from decompression is not known and the disease's rarity hampers the collection of large data series to ascertain this. Therefore, using an individual patient data (IPD) meta-analysis, we aimed to identify predictors for outcome and to obtain knowledge on the etiology of SSEH.
