Idem is the pronoun is with the fixed suffix -dem welded on, so once you can decline is, ea, id you can decline this one too: eiusdem, eidem, eodem, eadem. Two small collisions are worth noticing. The masculine nominative singular contracts is-dem to idem, which makes it look identical to the neuter idem, and the final m of an accusative turns into n before the d, giving eundem and eandem.
