Abstract

This report describes a patient with a history of breast carcinoma who presented with back pain and multiple collapsed vertebrae. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) demonstrated a diffuse bone marrow abnormality, more in keeping with an infiltrative process than with metastases. A bone biopsy confirmed the suspected diagnosis of vertebral involvement by amyloid.

摘要

本报告描述了一名有乳腺癌病史的患者，该患者出现背痛和多个椎体塌陷。磁共振成像（MRI）显示弥漫性骨髓异常，更符合浸润性病变而非转移瘤。骨活检证实了疑似的淀粉样蛋白累及椎体的诊断。
