Medpor Bone Implant Mimicking Postoperative Epidural Hematoma

Medpor Bone Implant Mimicking Postoperative Epidural Hematoma

Presently described is case in which early postoperative cranial computed tomography (CT) image demonstrated hyperdense epidural mass adjacent to microporous high-density polyethylene implant (Medpor; Stryker, Kalamazoo, MI, USA) that strongly mimicked epidural hematoma. Another cranial CT image obt...
