Pelvic masses, especially hydatid disease, rarely present with sciatica (1, 2). We present the computed tomography (CT) and the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings of a 49-year-old female patient with presacral hydatid disease, who was evaluated for her sciatica. We also want to emphasize the importance of assessing the pelvis of patients with symptoms and clinical findings that are inconsistent and that cannot be satisfactorily explained by the spinal imaging findings.
盆腔肿物,尤其是包虫病,很少会引起坐骨神经痛(1,2)。我们展示了一名49岁患有骶前包虫病的女性患者的计算机断层扫描(CT)和磁共振成像(MRI)结果,该患者因坐骨神经痛接受评估。我们还想强调,对于那些症状和临床表现不一致且脊柱影像学检查结果无法令人满意解释的患者,评估其骨盆的重要性。
