title: [Vertebral eosinophilic granuloma and spinal cord compression].
abstract: We describe a case of spinal eosinophilic granuloma inducing a medullary compression syndrome. However, this condition appears to be very infrequent, since only 16 cases were reported in literature. The difficulties of the diagnosis of this disease and its therapeutic management are discussed.
