Authors present a case of a cutaneous T. cell lymphoma (mycosis fungoides) complicated by a cauda equina syndrome. Crural and sciatic radicular pain were due to epidural lumbar involvement by tumoral process. After surgical decompression completed by chemotherapy the evolution was uneventful. This case is the second one reported in the literature.
