Abstract
Thalassemia is associated with several challenging comorbidities. Here we report a 20 year old thalassemic who presented with cauda equina syndrome due to paraspinal extra medullary hematopoiesis (EMH) and was treated with hydroxyurea, repeated blood transfusions, and radiotherapy. Thus compressive myelopathy due to EMH was successfully managed conservatively.
