  • Title: A case of aseptic vertebral necrosis in the context of metastatic lumbar disease.
    Author: Panow C, Valavanis A.
    Journal: Neuroradiology; 2002 Mar; 44(3):249-52. PubMed ID: 11942382.
    Abstract:
    Aseptic bone necrosis has many well recognized etiologies: caisson disease, corticosteroids, alcohol, Gaucher's disease and sickle cell anemia being a few of a long list. Little attention has been paid to metastatic disease as a possible cause and we were unable to find reference in the literature to this association. We present imaging features of metastatic Ewing's sarcoma involving the vertebral spine, which, in certain aspects, mimics other well-known entities of this region, such as Kümmell's and Scheuermann's diseases.
