Spinal Epidural Abscess COMPREHENSIVE SPINE PROGRAM COMPREHENSIVE SPINE DIAGNOSES INDEX What is a spinal epidural abscess? A spinal epidural abscess is an infection localized to the epidural space in the spinal column. The epidural space is between the bony spine and the dura mater. This infection can result in compression of the spinal cord and nerves as they leave the spinal canal. How common is spinal epidural abscess? The incidence of spinal epidural abscess is approximately 0.2 - 1.2 per 10,000 hospital admissions annually. The average age of patients with this condition is 57 years. 65% of patients with spinal epidural abscess have chronic disease associated with compromised immunity. Other associated conditions include diabetes mellitus (32%), IV drug abuse (18%), chronic renal failure (12%), and alcoholism (10%). Where are spinal epidural abscesses located? The thoracic level is the most common site reported (50%), followed by lumbar (35%) then cervical (15%). 82% of the infections are posterior (located toward the back), while 18% are anterior (located toward the front). What are the clinical features of a spinal epidural abscess?

Hidradenitis suppurative is characterized by recurrent chronic skin infections and the formation of sinus tracts and considerable scars. Its most common locations are the axillae and anogenital regions. We present the MR imaging findings in a patient with hidradenitis suppurativa resulting in lumbosacral epidural abscesses.
