UNASSIGNED: A @entity6234 is a rare clinical entity with considerable consequences without prompt diagnosis and treatment. Throughout the literature, there are limited accounts of @entity6234 formation following spinal surgery. This report is the first to describe the formation of a @entity6234 in the thoracic spine following surgery at the cervical level. A 53-year-old @entity1 developed significant paraparesis several hours after anterior cervical discectomy and fusion of @entity9509 . Expeditious return to operating room for anterior cervical revision decompression was performed, and the epidural @entity1410 was evacuated without difficulty. Postoperative imaging demonstrated a @entity3439 confined to the thoracic level, and the @entity1 was returned to the operating room for a third surgical procedure. Decompression of @entity7460 , with evacuation of the @entity3439 was performed. Postprocedure, the @entity1 's @entity3481 were restored, and, with rehabilitation, the @entity1 gained functional mobility. @entity6234 should be considered as a rare but potential complication of cervical discectomy and fusion. With early diagnosis and treatment, favorable outcomes may be achieved.
