DOM with epidural phlegmon and spinal cord compression. Sagittal CT (A), T1 post contrast (B), and T2 (C) MR images centered at the T9 vertebral level in a 25 year-old female with paraplegia, back pain, and methicillin sensitive S. aureus (MSSA) bacteremia shows advanced destructive changes of the T9 vertebral body with focal kyphosis and prominent epidural phlegmon contributing to spinal cord compression. Arrows in ‘C’ show inferior extent of central spinal cord T2 hyperintensity related to cord compression.
