We describe a case report of a man aged 56 years with a 4-month history of right-sided sciatica-type pain with subclinical disc prolapse evident on MRI. Worsening pain together with the appearance of a tender mass in his right buttock prompted further imaging, which demonstrated an infiltrative mass engulfing the lumbosacral plexus. This was later shown to be a granulocytic sarcoma on biopsy. Intervertebral disc herniation can be an incidental finding and is not always the cause of sciatica.
我们报告一例56岁男性病例,其有4个月右侧坐骨神经痛样疼痛病史,MRI显示有亚临床椎间盘突出。疼痛加重以及右臀部出现压痛性肿块促使进一步影像学检查,结果显示有一浸润性肿块包绕腰骶丛。活检后来证实这是一例粒细胞肉瘤。椎间盘突出可能是偶然发现,并不总是坐骨神经痛的病因。
