COVID-19-Related Spinal Subdural Hematoma Presented with Acute Compressive Myelopathy with a Review of the Literature

Neurology and Neuroscience

Additionally, coagulopathy associated with COVID-19 infection should increase the suspicion of SSDH which needs immediate surgical treatment to save the spinal cord.
