Intramedullary spinal cord abscess: case report.

L Tacconi1, T Arulampalam, F G Johnston, D G Thomas.   

Abstract

Intramedullary spinal cord abscesses are rare lesions with a poor prognosis unless diagnosed and treated promptly. We report a case of a Nigerian man with tuberculous meningitis that was complicated by an intraspinal cord abscess and was treated surgically. The literature regarding this uncommon clinical entity is reviewed.
