A 66-year-old woman presented a spastic quadriparesis due to compression of the cervical cord 6 years after the beginning of chronic hemodialysis. Five years later, she developed a second episode of compressive myelopathy affecting the lumbar spine. On both occasions, surgical laminectomy with removal of fibroligamentous rings that compressed the cord led to a total recovery of the patient. Histological study demonstrated the presence of massive amyloid deposits in the surgically excised material.
