We investigate the amenability of skew field extensions of the complex numbers. We prove that all skew fields of finite Gelfand-Kirillov transcendence degree are amenable. However there are both amenable and non-amenable finitely generated skew fields of infinite Gelfand-Kirillov transcendence degree.
