–
Bilateral lower extremity pain

Physical Exam
•
Spastic Legs
•
Hyper-reflexia
•
Sensory Loss
•
Cord Lesion (upper motor neuron, sensory
neuron) at T4

Possible Imaging Modalities
•
X-ray
–
Poor sensitivity for spinal injuries
•
CT
–
Indicated for bony abnormalities and fractures
–
Myelogram
–
for stenosis
or tumors
•
MRI
–
Spinal cord
–
Blood Clots
–
Disks
–
Soft Tissue Masses
–
Degree of Involvement

KUB
Christina Dancz
Gillian Lieberman, MD
An abdominal film was
ordered, to determine
the presence and location
of the bullet from a
previous wound

MRI –
T2 Weighted

At around T1 (arrow) we
see enhancement of the
spinal cord, indicating
fluid within the cord
itself.

Differential Diagnosis
•
Patchy Enhancement/Thickening on MR
–
Extrinsic Compression
•
Disk
•
Tumor
–
Infectious
•
TB/Brucellosis/Fungal
–
Inflammatory
•
MS
•
Myelitis
–
Neoplasm
•
Ependymoma, astrocytoma
–
Syringomyelia, Hydromyelia
•
Next Step:
–
Cord Biopsy and Culture

Diagnosis: Pott’s
Disease
•
Tuberculosis involving the Vertebral Bodies
•
Interesting Information about Pott’s
Disease
–
Evidence of Pott’s
Disease has been found in the
vertebrae of Egyptian mummies dating from 3000
BC
–
1-5% of TB cases have skeletal involvment
–
50% of patients with Pott’s
disease have no
pulmonary manifestations
•
TB is clinically relevant in the U.S.
–
2-8% of people with HIV will contract TB (CDC)
•
TB is clinically relevant worldwide

(Tuberculomas)
•
Musculoskeletal Involvement
–
Spondylitis
(Pott’s
Disease)
–
Osteomyelitis
–
Dactylitis
–
Arthritis

13
Etiology of Musculoskeletal TB
•
Hematogenous
spread through vertebral
arteries
•
Soft tissue involvement will result in
–
Abscess (quite large in TB, versus other infections)
–
Phlegmon
Christina Dancz
Gillian Lieberman, MD
14
Access to the Spinal Column
•
Bacteria lodge
under the end plate
and spread
–
Directly to disk
–
Across the joint
space
–
Under the anterior
and posterior
longitudinal
ligaments

Musculoskeletal TB
•
Characteristic features found in our Patient
–
Inflammation of the Spinal Cord
•
Other Characteristic Features
–
Preferential Involvement of L1
–
Erosion of Endplates
–
Involvement of multiple vertebral segments
•
Preferentially anterior destruction
•
Resulting in Kyphosis
–
Elongated paravertebral
abscess
•
May calcify (Pathognomonic)
–
Narrowing of Joint Space
•
Usually in TB shows relative sparing of joint space, until late
in disease
