Résumé

A 47-year-old male patient presented at our neurosurgery unit with neurogenic claudication symptoms. The patient had a history of low back pain and lower extremity pain for 2 years. He had a body mass index of 38. Magnetic resonance imaging of the lumbar spine demonstrated severe stenosis due to spinal epidural lipomatosis. The patient was treated conservatively, and after weight loss in 13 months (body mass index of 29) he had full recovery of neurologic symptoms. A follow-up magnetic resonance image obtained 14 months after showed complete resolution of spinal epidural lipomatosis.
