Abstract

Focal amyloidosis (amyloidoma) involving the vertebral spine without an underlying systemic disorder is rare. Only six cases been reported in the literature so far, one involving the cervical spine, the rest occurring in the thoracic region. We present a patient with amyloidoma involving the thoracic spine and describe the magnetic resonance imaging features of this condition.
