Abstract:	We report the case of a child affected by acute myeloid leukaemia who was treated with allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation and developed cervicothoracic spinal osteomyelitis due to Aspergillus flavus. The diagnosis was difficult on a clinical basis, but made possible by conventional radiography and MRI.

Keywords:	Spine Osteomyelitis Aspergillus Haematopoietic stem cell transplantation Complication Child
