Abstract
In this report, we describe a case of cervical epidural hematoma presenting after epidural block of C6-7 level in a 62-year-old female. We suggest that, even with successful cervical epidural block under fluoroscopic guidance, epidural hematoma and neurologic symptoms might occur few hours later which necessitates surgical intervention.
