  • Title: [Vertebral osteonecrosis. Apropos of 3 cases, 1 complicated by spinal cord compression and 2 associated with another necrotic localization].
    Author: Queinnec JY, de Bray JM, Audran M, Renier JC.
    Journal: Rev Rhum Mal Osteoartic; 1985 Jan; 52(1):1-5. PubMed ID: 3992150.
    Abstract:
    The authors report three cases of vertebral osteonecrosis which presented the phenomenon of intra-vertebral space. These patients had osteoporosis with vertebral compression. Two received steroid therapy. One case progressively developed spinal cord compression and the two other cases had an associated osteonecrosis (femoral head and talus). After reviewing the literature, the authors stress the relative frequency of neurological complications, in particular spinal cord compression (7 per cent).
