Core Tip Spinal manipulation therapy (SMT) has been widely used worldwide to treat musculoskeletal diseases, but it can cause serious adverse events. Spinal epidural hematoma (SEH) caused by SMT is a rare emergency that can cause neurological dysfunction. We report three cases of SEH after SMT, and review a series of literature. All three patients underwent surgery after failed conservative treatment and returned to normal after 3 mo of follow-up. We focused on early recognition and surgical treatment.
