In the small and diverse group of atypical, non-neoplastic intramedullary spinal cord lesions, parasitic infections are rarely considered, especially in Caucasian patients without systemic complaints or eosinophilia. A case of atypical myelopathy caused by Schistosoma haematobium is presented. The clinical, laboratory and imaging features in the MRI era both before and after treatment are discussed.
