LUMBOVERTEBRAL SYNDROME AFTER EXTRADURAL BLOOD PATCH
Department of Anaesthesia, University of Basel/Kantonsspital CH-4031 Basel, Switzerland.
We describe a patient who developed an immobilizing lumbovertebral syndrome after an extradural blood patch and who was hospitalized with a. suspected extradural abscess. An infectious aetiology of the persistent backache could be excluded and the patient recovered with analgesics and physiotherapy. The probable aetiology is discussed.
