Overview

The most potent risk factor in the development of epidural hematoma is Head trauma. Other risk factors include: Spinal trauma, Bleeding disorders, anticoagulant drugs usage, blood vessel malformation, CNS surgery, Lumbar acupunctures ,spinal injections, Metastatic cancer, sickle cell anemiaand kummell's disease.
