Incidence and risk factors of spinal epidural hemorrhage after spine surgery: a cross-sectional retrospective analysis of a national database.

Although severe SEH cases were not detected, the incidence of SEH was similar to that reported in literature. Given that SEH is a rare complication of spine surgery and constitutes an important research area that needs to be studied further, our study makes a meaningful contribution based on a rigorous national level sample for the first time and provides the academic circle and health professionals with a reliable evidence of improved clinical outcomes in such cases.
