Arachnoiditis ossificans (AO) is a rare entity in which ossification of the leptomeninges occurs. This report illustrates a patient with AO of the cervical and dorsal spine, diagnosed by helical computed tomography with multiplanar reconstruction. It demonstrates the value of computed tomography in diagnosing calcified plaques and the utility of multiplanar reconstruction in giving an exact anatomic reference to neurosurgeon.
骨化性蛛网膜炎(AO)是一种罕见的疾病,其中软脑膜发生骨化。本报告介绍了一名颈椎和胸椎患有AO的患者,通过螺旋计算机断层扫描和多平面重建进行诊断。它展示了计算机断层扫描在诊断钙化斑块方面的价值,以及多平面重建在为神经外科医生提供精确解剖参考方面的作用。
