Abstract

Spinal subdural hematoma (SSDH) was rarely reported in association with COVID-19. A fifty-five-year-old febrile male was presented with sudden onset of areflexic paraparesis, urinary retention, loss of all sensations below the twelve spinal thoracic segment, and severe back pain. COVID-19 was confirmed by positive RT-PCR and spinal MRI showed SSDH.
