  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

A 59-year-old man with a history of diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) presented with fever, back pain and weakness in the left lower limb. Three weeks later he suddenly developed flaccid paraklegia, a sensory deficit below the abdomen and sphincter dysfunction. MR images of the spinal cord showed an extensive anterior spinal epidural abscess exten-ding from the seventh cervical to the twelfth thora-cic spine and osteomyelitis in the lower thoracic spines. He died of pulmonary infection one year after the disease onset.

Postmortem examination revealed a large em-pyema in the lung.
