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).
