Cystic meningiomas are quite rare, accounting for 2% to 4% of all intracrani-Subarachnoid hematoma is a rare complication after spinal anesthesia and can lead to severe neurological impairment. It has been reported to be associated with coagulation deficit. The clinical presentation commonly includes lower limb weakness, sensory loss, pain and disorder of sphincters. Transient radicular irritation (TRI), also known as transient neurologic symptoms (TNS) has been described after spinal anesthesia, It is characteristic by pain or sensory abnormalities in the buttocks, lower back or lower limb without motor deficit, and can persist for several days after the effects of spinal anesthesia. It is important to make a proper neurological evaluation, since the surgical management so required will influence significantly the functional prognosis of the patient. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Resumo Hematoma subaracnoideo após anestesia espinal é conhecido por ser muito raro. Na maioria desses casos, a anestesia espinal foi difícil de executar e/ou malsucedida; outros fatores de risco incluem terapia anticoagulante ou antiplaquetária e trauma medular direto. Relatamos um caso de hematoma subaracnoideo após raquianestesia em paciente jovem sem fatores de risco. Subarachnoid haematoma after spinal anaesthesia is known to be very rare. In the majority of these cases, spinal anaesthesia was difficult to perform and/or unsuccessful; other risk factors included antiplatelet or anticoagulation therapy, and direct spinal cord trauma. We report a case of subarachnoid haematoma after spinal anaesthesia in a young patient without risk factors. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
