A radiological and anatomical case study of intervertebral osteochondrosis is presented. X-rays reveal its evolution from an isolated Schmorl's node to a more diffuse lumbar intervertebral osteochondrosis. Macroscopical and microscopical post-mortem examination shows various degrees of disc deterioration with cartilaginous plate flaw and localized or diffuse intravertebral disc herniation. A discussion on the origin of this cartilaginous plate weakness and on the respective significance of the X-ray and biopsy in the differential diagnosis between intervertebral osteochondrosis and infectious spondylitis follows.
本文介绍了一例椎间盘骨软骨病的放射学和解剖学病例研究。X射线显示其从孤立的施莫尔氏结节演变为更弥漫性的腰椎间盘骨软骨病。宏观和微观尸检显示椎间盘有不同程度的退变，伴有软骨板缺陷以及局限性或弥漫性椎间盘突出。随后讨论了这种软骨板薄弱的起源，以及X射线和活检在椎间盘骨软骨病与感染性脊柱炎鉴别诊断中的各自意义。
