Disease Management Disease - Epidural abscess Definition: An epidural abscess is an inflammation that includes a collection of infected material (pus) located between the outer membrane covering the brain and spinal cord (the dura) and the bones of the skull or spine. Alternative Names: Abscess - epidural; Spinal abscess Causes And Risk: An epidural abscess is caused by infection in the area between the bones of the skull or spine, and the outer meninges (the membranes covering the brain and spinal cord). This infection is classified as an intracranial epidural abscess if it is located in the skull area, or as a spinal epidural abscess if it is found in the spine area. The infection is usually caused by bacteria (staphylococcus is common), but some may be caused by fungus. Infected material (pus) frequently includes destroyed tissue cells, white blood cells, and live or dead microorganisms which may wall off into an abscess. There is often inflammation of the tissues around the abscess in response to the infection.

American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons 1989 Annual Meeting - Scientific Program Nongranulomatous Spinal Epidural Abscess Paper No. 369 TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 14, 1989 11:30 AM Las Vegas Convention Center Rooms E1-E3 *Ronald D. Gardner, MD, Miami, FL *Frank P. Cammisa, Jr., MD, Miami, Fl Frank J. Eismont, MD, Miami, FL *Barth Green, MD, Miami, FL Fourteen patients with spinal epidural abscesses were reviewed. All presented with pain, fever and elevated white blood cell count. Thirteen had preoperative paralysis including 1 with Frankel A and 5 with Frankel B paralysis. Nine patients had associated vertebral osteomyelitis. Myelogram accurately demonstrated the abscesses. Magnetic resonance imaging was falsely negative in one patient, but allowed early detection of vertebral osteomyelitis in others. All patients were treated with surgical decompression (average 8 levels) with 9 laminectomies, 3 anterior decompressions and 2 having both procedures. Seven patients died. Mortality correlated with increasing age, presence of diabetes, and severe paralysis. All surviving patients with paralysis improved at least one Frankel grade. *By Invitation Moderator: John W. Frymoyer, MD, Burlington, VT
