Abstract
Imaging is of paramount importance in early diagnosis of epidural abscess and its intracranial complications. Typical CT imaging features of an epidural abscess include a hypodense lentiform extra-axial collection with rim enhancement. We present a case of epidural abscess that was hyperdense on CT scan due to the presence of associated epidural hematoma. The literature is reviewed regarding this unusual complication of epidural abscess.
