Evacuation may sometimes be necessary due to a clinically poorly tolerated mass effect, and / or poor accessibility to antibiotics. -An epidural abscess is a buildup of pus in the epidural space that can mechanically compress the spinal cord. The diagnosis is made by MRI or, in the event of unavailability, by myelography followed by CT. Treatment includes antibiotics and sometimes drainage of the abscess.
