Abstract
Background:
Few data exist on treating spinal cord endometriosis.
Case:
Total excision of the endometriotic lesion, followed by a bilateral oophorectomy and aromatase inhibitor therapy, led to a clinical improvement.
Conclusion:
Attempts at total removal of spinal cord endometriosis may be safer after achieving pharmacologic control.
