    Author: Alorainy IA, Al-Asmi AR, del Carpio R.
    Journal: Eur J Radiol; 2000 Jul; 35(1):8-11. PubMed ID: 10930760.
    Abstract:
    A case of beta-thalassemia intermedia with spinal cord compression due to extramedullary hematopoiesis, which was successfully treated by blood transfusion, is presented. Emphasis was made on the MRI appearance of extramedullary hematopoiesis on different pulse sequences. The theories that aimed to explain the involvement of the epidural space by extramedullary hematopoiesis are discussed.
