ABSTRACT
Epidural analgesia is one of the effective methods for pain management after total knee arthroplasty. Although epidural analgesia has been reported to have very low epidural abscess rates, infection could be serious and life-threatening, if there is no early diagnosis and treatment. We report on a patient who developed an epidural abscess following epidural catheterization after total knee arthroplasty.
