Abstract

Limbus vertebra (LV) is a lesion formed by uniform triangular bonefragment through marginal interosseous herniation of the nucleuspulposus or adjacent bone affecting the margin angle of vertebralbodies. It is usually seen in radiographs incidentally. LV can bemisdiagnosed as vertebral fracture, Schmorl node, infection or tumor. Inthis paper, we present a 69-year-old woman who was admitted to ouroutpatient clinic with the complaint of mechanical low back pain andwas diagnosed with anterior LV and intervertebral disc degeneration.

Özet

Limbus vertebra (LV), nukleus pulposusun marjinal interosseöz herniasyonu veya vertebra cisimlerinin kenar açısını etkileyen komşu kemik nedeniyle uniform üçgen kemik parçası ile karakterize lezyondur. Genellikle grafilerde rastlantısal olarak görülür. Fakat LV vertebra kırığı, Schmorl nodülü, enfeksiyon veya tümör ile karıştırılabilir. Bu yazıda, mekanik bel ağrısı şikayetiyle polikliniğimize başvuran ve anterior LV ve intervertebral disk dejenerasyonu tanısı konan 69 yaşındaki bir kadın sunulmuştur.
