摘要：

The incidence of spinal epidural abscess was 1:1,930 epidural catheters in a 1-yr national study of 17,372 epidural anesthetic procedures. Forty-four percent of patients with epidural abscess were discharged with persisting neurologic deficits. No patient who received epidural analgesia for ≤ 2 days developed epidural abscess.
