In Dr. Yousem’s third part of spinal lesions series, he dives into the different etiologies of extradural spinal lesions which can compress the dura and mimic intradural lesions.

INCLUDES

• Hematomas- Subdural & Epidural
• Diskitis & Osteomyelitis
• Spinal Infections
• Homatopoiesis
• Congential/Developmental Spinal Lesions
• And many more…
