Abstract
A case of pseudogout manifesting as a cervical myelopathy is presented. Surgery can offer the definitive treatment with removal of the compressing crystalline mass. This diagnosis should be considered in a progressive myelopathy in the elderly person shown to have extradural compression, even in the absence of other stigmata of gout.Entities:
