Radiological findings on the skeleton of the Royal Princess Anna Vasa are presented. Anna Vasa (1568-1625) was the sister of Sigismund Vasa, who reigned as Sigismund III, king of Sweden and Poland. She was born in Sweden but spent most of her life in Poland. Her skeleton was removed from the tomb in Toruń during restoration work at St. Mary's Church in April 1994. It was then subjected to anthropological and radiological examinations (conventional radiography and CT). The studies revealed a number of anatomical deviations and pathological abnormalities; e.g. basilar impression and congenital anomalies of the spine. These findings can explain many of the complaints troubling Anna Vasa during her lifetime. A fragmentary historical outline and biography of Anna Vasa and Sigismund III are also presented.
本文展示了安娜·瓦萨公主骨骼的放射学检查结果。安娜·瓦萨（1568 - 1625）是西吉斯蒙德·瓦萨的妹妹，西吉斯蒙德三世统治瑞典和波兰，她出生于瑞典，但一生大部分时间在波兰度过。1994年4月，在托伦圣玛丽教堂修复期间，她的遗骨从墓中移出，随后接受了人类学和放射学检查（传统X线摄影和CT）。研究发现了一些解剖结构异常和病理异常，如颅底陷入和脊柱先天性异常。这些发现可以解释困扰安娜·瓦萨一生的许多病症。本文还简要介绍了安娜·瓦萨和西吉斯蒙德三世的历史概况及生平。
