This study analyzed vertebral collapse causes and imaging findings in 98 patients. Malignant lesions showed distinct patterns in vertebral collapse types, neural arch, and soft-tissue involvement compared to benign causes.

Area of Science:

  • Radiology
  • Oncology
  • Orthopedics

Background:

  • Vertebral collapse is a common condition with diverse etiologies.
  • Accurate differentiation between benign and malignant causes is crucial for patient management.
  • Imaging plays a pivotal role in characterizing vertebral collapse.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the imaging characteristics of vertebral collapse in a large cohort of patients.
  • To differentiate between benign and malignant causes of vertebral collapse using conventional and advanced imaging techniques.
  • To correlate imaging findings with histopathological diagnoses.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective analysis of 98 patients with 344 collapsed vertebrae.
  • Utilized conventional radiography, digital radiography, MRI, CT, and bone scintigraphy.

  • Classified vertebral endplate collapse into four types and analyzed associated findings.

    • Main Results:

    • Malignant lesions were associated with specific collapse types (e.g., Type 4), neural arch, and paravertebral soft-tissue involvement.
    • MR signal patterns differed significantly between benign and malignant lesions.
    • Intervertebral disk involvement was more frequent in benign lesions.

    Conclusions:

    • Imaging features, particularly MRI signal patterns and collapse morphology, can help differentiate benign from malignant vertebral collapse.
    • Multimodality imaging approach provides comprehensive evaluation for vertebral collapse.
    • Further research can refine imaging criteria for improved diagnostic accuracy.
