Extramedullary hematopoiesis is an unusual cause of spinal cord compression. We report the case of a 39-year-old man who presented symptoms of progressive dorsal spinal cord compression. Hemogramm showed erythrocytosis with microcytosis. Hemoglobin electrophoresis revealed heterozygous beta-thalassemia. Diagnosis of extramedullary hematopoiesis was based on magnetic resonance imaging findings. Radiological and therapeutic options in this rare condition are briefly discussed.
