We describe a patient with sacral insufficiency fractures presenting as acute onset low back pain without antecedent trauma. Sacral insufficiency fractures are an often unsuspected cause of low back pain. The clinical presentation and plain radiograph findings can mimic metastatic disease, leading to unnecessary investigations and treatment. However, the location, linearity, and appearance of these fractures on computed tomography is very characteristic and obviates the need for further evaluation.
我们描述了一名患有骶骨应力性骨折的患者，其表现为急性发作的下背痛，无既往创伤史。骶骨应力性骨折是下背痛的一个常被忽视的原因。其临床表现和X线平片表现可能类似于转移性疾病，从而导致不必要的检查和治疗。然而，这些骨折在计算机断层扫描上的位置、线性和外观非常具有特征性，无需进一步评估。
