Abstract
An 11-year-old boy presented with pain in the back, urinary retention, paraplegia and loss of sensations below L1. Investigations revealed an intramedullary lesion. An intramedullary spinal cord abscess was found at surgery. The pus was evacuated and abscess was excised. Minimal recovery was seen following surgery. Early intervention and a high index of suspicion is required in such cases.
