We describe a case of thoracic myelopathy in a patient with renal osteodystrophy. The patient had chronic renal failure for longer than 20 years and had skeletal changes indicative of renal osteodystrophy, before the onset of myelopathy. Association between spinal stenosis and this entity has been documented only once before in the lumbar region. This is therefore the first case of thoracic myelopathy due to severe stenosis in just one vertebra in a patient with renal osteodystrophy, which was documented by computed tomography as well as magnetic resonance imaging and proven by histopathology.
