Epidural hematoma associated with dextran infusion.South Med J. 2003 Aug; 96(8):811-4.SM
Abstract
The authors describe a case of epidural hematoma in association with dextran infusion in a patient who had undergone a peripheral vascular operation with epidural analgesia. Possible mechanisms for the anticoagulant effect of dextran and guidelines for the use of anticoagulant therapy in patients undergoing epidural anesthesia are discussed.
