  • Title: Imaging findings of spinal brown tumors: a rare but important cause of pathologic fracture and spinal cord compression.
    Author: Colucci PG, Schweitzer AD, Saab J, Lavi E, Chazen JL.
    Journal: Clin Imaging; 2016; 40(5):865-9. PubMed ID: 27179153.
    Abstract:
    Brown tumors rarely develop in the spine, and neurological compromise is exceedingly uncommon. There is a growing body of literature describing brown tumors that involve the spine, but few emphasize the radiographic findings. In the present case, we illustrate the development and progression of biopsy-proven brown tumors leading to neurological compromise through radiographs, computed tomography, magnetic resonance, and nuclear imaging acquired over a 4-year span.
