case_images: Preoperative cervical magnetic resonance imaging: (a) T1-weighted sagittal shows an isointense mass compressing the cord, (b) in T2 weighted, the mass is hyperintense compatible with acute hematoma, (c) The mass id biconvex in T2-weighted axial view compatible with epidural hematoma.

case_images: It was isointense on T1 weighted and hyperintense on T2-weighted MRIs; these findings were compatible with an acute cervical/SHE [Figure 1].

case_images: She underwent a C3 to C5 laminectomy for the evacuation of a large right posterolateral epidural clot 36 h later [Figure 2].
case_images: Postoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI): (a) T1-weighted and (b) T2-weighted cervical MRI shows acceptable decompression of the cord.

case_images: The MRI performed on the 12th postoperative day showed resolution of the hematoma [Figure 3].
