  • Title: Inflammatory involvement of vertebrae in ankylosing spondylitis.
    Author: Sutherland RI, Matheson D.
    Journal: J Rheumatol; 1975 Sep; 2(3):296-302. PubMed ID: 1185742.
    Abstract:
    Unusual destructive lesions of the cervical and lumbar vertebrae are described in two patients with ankylosing spondylitis. Biopsy of a lesion from one of the patients showed it to be inflammatory in nature. Possible mechanisms for vertebral centrum involvement in ankylosing spondylitis, centering on the role of enthesopathies are discussed.
