<jats:p>Myeloid sarcoma or chloroma, an extramedullary myeloid tumor, is observed in a minority of patients with acute non-lymphocytic leukaemia. Very few cases may present without bone marrow involvement (i.e., primary myeloid sarcoma). Among the various sites of disease manifestation reported, solitary bone lesions may occur. Diagnosis and, even more so, assessment of response to systemic therapy is strikingly more difficult than in systemic disease, i.e. acute leukaemia. We report the case of a patient diagnosed with primary myeloid sarcoma involving thoracic vertebral bones and associated with spinal cord compression.
