[Epidural spinal hematoma after lumbar puncture].

Three days after a lumbar puncture in a 7 month old child with pyogenic meningitis and without any blood clotting defect, appeared symptoms of spinal cord compression. Myelography led to surgery, 5 days after the puncture. At operation, an epidural hematoma, from L1 to L5 was removed. The exceptional character of this accident and its cause are discussed.
