We describe a rare case of hemispherical spondylosclerosis (HSS), a condition causing low back pain. Differentiating HSS from other serious spinal conditions like malignancy and infection presents diagnostic challenges.

Area of Science:

Spinal Imaging and Pathology
Diagnostic Radiology
Skeletal Diseases

Background:

Hemispherical spondylosclerosis (HSS) is an uncommon condition affecting the spine.
Low back pain is a common symptom that can be associated with various spinal pathologies.

Observation:

A case study of a middle-aged woman presenting with low back pain is detailed.
The study includes plain radiographic, CT, and MR imaging findings.

Findings:

Pathological examination of the affected area is described.
Diagnostic challenges in distinguishing HSS from malignancy and infection are highlighted.

Implications:

Accurate differentiation of HSS is crucial for appropriate patient management.
