ABSTRACT

Spontaneous spinal subdural hematoma is a rare disease. Several predisposing factors are reported including impaired clotting due to therapeutic anti-coagulation or hematologic disorder, vascular anom-aly, intraspinal tumor, and iatrogenic causes such as lumbar puncture or spinal anesthesia.We report a rare case of spontaneous spinal subdural hematoma developed after weightlifting in a healthy young man treated with conservative treatment.
