Abstract
We report the case of a 66 year-old-patient, who profited by a laminectomy T4 to T7 for spinal cord compression due to an osteomyelitis. Bacteriologic al samples showed positives gram cocci and Bacteroides fragilis by the cult ure. The systematic research of a primitive source permitted to find a para sigmoidis abscess, which was treated by a sigmoidectomy with a colorectal a nastomosis.
