Core Tip	This case report presents an unusual clinical scenario describing a 54-year-old male who was admitted after acute deteriorating symptoms of bilateral lower extremity weakness, which subsequently progressed to involve the upper extremities. Unexpectedly, neuroimaging, magnetic resonance imaging of the spine, confirmed the presence of C5-C6 osteomyelitis and a C6-C7 spinal epidural abscess with severe canal narrowing. This imaging finding was remarkable given the significant neurological deficits. Surgical intervention started with long term antibiotics that improved the patient’s symptoms. Other info: (1) Informed consent was obtained; (2) Does not apply to case reports; (3) Manuscript has been reviewed multiple times; and (4) Spinal Epidural Abscess. The case has an educational value regarding rare occurrence of Spinal Epidural abscess after a urinary tract infection.
