A 50-year-old Asian male presented to the emergency department with sudden onset of bilateral lower limb weakness preceded by lower back pain, which developed after lifting a moderately heavyweight. As the pain increased in intensity, the patient was transferred by ambulance to the emergency department, and en-route lost complete motor (0/5 power and absent reflexes) and sensory control over his lower limbs. The patient's medical history was significant for diabetes mellitus, hypertension, chronic kidney disease, and coronary artery disease with percutaneous coronary intervention in 2018 and 2019. He was taking dual antiplatelets (aspirin and clopidogrel) along with other medications. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed findings suggestive of acute and extensive extradural hematoma extending from the foramen magnum to the level of the fifth lumbar vertebra (L5), exerting severe mass effect on the cord with evidence of edema, most severe at the level from 7th to 10th dorsal vertebrae (D7-D10) vertebral level. The clinical features and the radiological findings confirmed the diagnosis of acute cauda equina syndrome. This review is intended to promote awareness about a possible clinical correlation between the use of dual antiplatelet therapy as a risk factor of spinal hematomas and the cauda equina syndrome.
