Spinal Hematoma: A Literature Survey with Metaanalysis on 613 Patients

D. Kreppel, G. Antoniadis, W. Seeling

Tables of case reports from the literature

The following pages contain a table with case reports from the literature. These case reports

are assembled in alphabetical order depending on the author’s name.

A definition for the header of each column can be found in the section „Materials and

If a case report names several possibilities for one of the relevant factors (e.g. several

etiologic factors) the one used in the analysis is printed bold.

If there is no information available in the respective publication for one of the analysed

factors a question mark (?) is printed instead. This is also true for information that is not clear

or extensive enough to be taken into account. In some cases unclear information, that can not

be categorized is given in brakes following the question mark.

Text in quotation marks denotes quotes from the literature (if necessary in a translated form).
