Abstract:
The imaging mimics, acute osteoporotic compression fractures, metastasis and malignant melanoma or plasmacytoma pathological fractures are the important clinical problems in geriatric age group that need to be differentiated due to their grossly differing prognostic and therapeutic implications. There are few suggestive features on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) that help differentiate between these entities. Hemangiomas are very common benign spinal tumors that have characteristic features on MRI. In the setting of multiple vertebral hemangiomas causing cord compression in elderly patients,

Abstract:
Background: The risks associated with percutaneous vertebroplasty (PV) are low. Patients show marked improvement and are able to rapidly resume normal activities after PV. The sudden development of postoperative vertebral compression fracture (VCF) is a common complication, and additional PV is frequently performed in these cases. However, there have been no studies reporting acute compression fractures of an adjacent vertebra immediately after PV. Objective: This case report presents a rare case in which the patient had to undergo a second PV because of PV-induced adjacent VCF. Further, we re

Abstract:
AbstractPainful vertebral body compression fractures are prevalent in elderly patients. Two-thirds of patients will have spontaneous resolution of pain in 4 to 6 weeks and initial management is nonoperative with pain management and bracing. A focused history and exam can identify patients likely to benefit from vertebral body augmentation (e.g., vertebroplasty or kyphoplasty). Patients with persistent back pain and bone marrow edema on magnetic resonance imaging may benefit from injection of cement into the fractured vertebral body with either vertebroplasty or kyphoplasty.

Abstract:
INTRODUCTION Acute osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures are common and usually managed conservatively. However, a significant number will remain symptomatic, causing significant pain with considerable associated morbidity and mortality. These fractures can be effectively treated with cement augmentation. However, it is impossible to distinguish between an acute and a chronic healed fracture on plain radiographs. The definitive investigation is a magnetic resonance scan. The aim of this paper is to describe and evaluate two new clinical signs to help in the diagnosis of symptomatic frac

Methods An interdisciplinary panel of clinical experts on MM and myeloma bone disease developed recommendations for the value of MRI based on data published through March 2014. Recommendations MRI has high sensitivity for the early detection of marrow infiltration by myeloma cells compared with other radiographic methods. Thus, MRI detects bone involvement in patients with myeloma much earlier than the myeloma-related bone des

Abstract:
The goals of surgery for metastatic disease of the lumbosacral spine are to relieve compression of the thecal sac and nerve roots, to resect malignant tissue, and to create a stable reconstruction of the spine. Reconstruction of the lumbosacral junction, specifically the L-5 vertebral body, is particularly challenging because the biomechanical properties of this level differ from other areas of the spine. A 40-year-old woman with intraductal breast carcinoma that metastasized to the L-5 vertebral body presented with progressive low-back pain, right-sided L-5 radiculopathy, and weakness. Magnet

Abstract:
A 77-year-old woman having back pain due to an L2 vertebral body compression fracture took a lumbar spine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). In MRI, in addition to the L2 vertebral body fracture, invagination of the small intestine into the intervertebral disc space at L5-S1 was found by chance. On a lateral lumbar spinal X-ray, the lordotic angle was markedly increased at the L5-S1 level. Additionally, the L5-S1 disc space had widened. These X-ray findings indicate the segmental instability at L5-S1. The spinal fusion operation on L3-4-5 seems to have resulted in overt mechanical loading on th

Abstract Previous reports of computed tomographic scan with contrast myelography in cervical spinal cord injury have shown a rate of disc herniation of less than 5%. We hypothesized that injuries associated with forces adequate to cause bone or ligamentous injury in the region of the disc space could be associated with higher and more significant rates of disc herniation. Thirty-seven consecutive traumatic midcervical fracture subluxations were reviewed. Fracture subluxation was defined by fracture of the facet joints, pedicles, or vertebral bodies or more than 3.5 mm subluxation from C2-C3 to

Traumatic cervical spondyloptosis is an uncommon and severe form of facet joint dislocation that commonly leads to severe neurological damage. Decision making regarding the reduction and fixation technique is challenging, especially when a patient is neurologically intact, since an undiagnosed prolapsed disk at the involved level may lead to severe neurological consequences during reduction.

Abstract Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the spine has demonstrated to be a useful tool for correct staging of multiple myeloma (MM), as it is more sensitive than plain x-rays in detecting vertebral lesions. Furthermore, different patterns of bone marrow involvement (focal, diffuse or normal) can be depicted, and this could contribute to better define the prognosis in newly diagnosed patients. In the present study we prospectively evaluated the clinical and prognostic role of spinal MRI in 120 newly diagnosed MM patients (68M, 52F, median age = 56yrs) that subsequently received high-dose c

Injury to the cervical spinal cord is a major health problem owing to its frequency and to the often devastating sequelae of serious trauma with respect to long-term disability for the patient. Cervical injuries are often reported in association with head trauma and cervical spinal cord injury appears to be a major contributing factor in acute death secondary to traffic accidents producing severe head injuries. A high incidence of neurological deficits is reported in cervical spinal trauma, but cervical injuries can escape detection in the acute phase if clinically silent or in patients uncons
