[Spinal cord infarction during haemodialysis].
A 26-year-old patient with chronic renal failure presented a spinal cord infarction during haemodialysis. This is the first case of a patient with chronic renal failure maintained on chronic haemodialysis described in literature. In this case, the severity of vascular lesions documented by widespread vascular calcifications were particularly striking.
