A 35-year-old lady with chronic backache. On X-ray she had a D12 collapse. But interveebral disc space is maintained. All are possible except:
Characteristic radiological feature of Pott's spine Obliteration of disk space with destruction of two adjacent veebrae. Osteoporosis: Cod fish appearance is seen in which the disc bulges into the nearby veebral bodies and the disc becomes biconvex. Multiple myeloma: Wedge collapse of the veebra is seen and most of the time involving more than one veebra, commonly in the thoracic spine. Metastasis: Well circumscribed. Can be sclerotic e.g prostrate ;osteolytic e.g. renal and thyroid or mixed e.g. breast and lung
