Summary
An epidural hematoma is a collection of blood above the dura matter, usually due to a head trauma. When blood accumulates in this space, it can result in raised intracranial pressure, damaging delicate nerve cells.
Epidural hematomas are most commonly caused by head injuries, such as those sustained in car accidents or falls. They can also be associated with childbirth (in newborns), cancer, or certain medical procedures. Symptoms vary depending on the size and location of the hematoma, but may include a headache, nausea and vomiting, loss of consciousness, seizures, or paralysis.
