Name of the Patient : Abc Xyzi Palmn / F / 45 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzrankar.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Cervico-dorsal Spine.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
Known C/O Kochs spine with paraplegia since April 0000.
On AKT.
EXAMINATION :
M.R.I of the cervico-dorsal spine was performed using the following parameters :
4 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted sagittal images.
5 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted axial images.
FEW IMAGES SHOW PATIENT MOTION.
OBSERVATION :
There is near complete collapse of the D2 vertebral body with retropulsion and a resultant kyphus at this level.
Areas of hypointensity on the T1 Weighted images which turn heterogeneously hyperintense on the T2 Weighted images are seen to involve the D1, D2 and D3 vertebral bodies and the apendages of the D2 and D3 vertebrae. Also seen is involvement of the D1-D2 and D2-D3 intervertebral discs.
There is extension of this pathologic process into the anterior and left lateral epidural space and the pre and paravertebral soft tissues over the D1 to D3 levels. The cord is seen to be compressed at the D2/D3 levels. The spinal cord at these levels shows a hyperintense signal on the T2 Weighted images and this would be suggestive of cord edema/ischemia/myelitis.
The costo-vertebral joints on the left side at the D2 and D3 levels are involved by the pathologic process.
..2/.
Small postero-central disc herniations are seen at the C5-C6 and C6-C7 levels. Ligamentum flavum hypertrophy is also seen at these levels.
The cervical intervertebral discs show loss of water content.
The rest of the visualized cervico-dorsal vertebral bodies and the remaining dorsal intervertebral discs show normal signal intensity.
IMPRESSION :
The MRI features are suggestive of a pathologic process involving the D1, D2 and D3 vertebrae and the D1-D2 and D2-D3 intervertebral discs with soft tissue extensions and cord compression with cord edema/ischemia/myelitis as described. This most likely represents an infective process like tuberculosis.
The possibility of this being a neoplastic process like a small cell tumor is less likely.
As compared to the previous MRI dated 00.00.00, there is no significant change in the degree of cord compression.

Examination : M.R.I. of the Dorso-lumbar Spine.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
H/O fall of weight on the back on 00.00.00 with paraplegia and bladder involvement since then.
EXAMINATION :
M.R.I of the dorso-lumbar spine was performed using the following parameters :
4 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted sagittal images.
5 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted axial images.
OBSERVATION :
There is slight anterior wedging of the D12 vertebral body with slight retropulsion of the same. The D12 vertebra shows a hypointense signal on the T1 Weighted images which appears hyperintense on the T2 Weighted images. The D11-D12 and D12-L1 intervertebral discs appear unremarkable. Fracture of the pedicles, transverse process, the laminae and probably the spinous process of the D12 vertebra is noted. There is rupture of the posterior longitudinal ligament. The anterior longitudinal ligament appears intact but is probably stripped away from the D12 vertebra. The D11-D12 facet joints show diastasis. Intermediate signal on the T1 Weighted images in the anterior epidural space at the D12 vertebral level, which appears relatively hypointense to CSF on the T2 Weighted images may represent epidural haemorrhage. There is resultant mild cord compression at the D12 vertebral level. The lower dorsal spinal cord over about D6 upto the conus medullaris shows a hyperintense signal on the T2 Weighted images (iso to hypointense to normal cord on the T1 Weighted images) which suggest cord contusion/edema in the given clinical setting.
Ill-defined, hyperintense signal on the T2 Weighted images is noted in the prevertebral, paravertebral and posterior paraspinal soft tissues over the D11 to L1 vertebral levels, which may represent soft tissue injury.
Mild central wedging of the L1 vertebral body is noted with subtle altered signal along its superior cortical endplate.
The rest of the visualized dorso-lumbar vertebral bodies and the intervertebral discs reveal normal signal intensity. The facet joints are unremarkable.
The conus medullaris terminates at the L1-L2 level.
IMPRESSION :
Anterior wedging of the D12 vertebral body with slight retropulsion and fracture of the posterior elements of D12 as described is the sequelae of previous trauma. Cord signal alteration over about D6 upto the conus medullaris would represent cord contusion/edema. There is mild cord compression at the D12 vertebral level.

The suprasellar cistern and the left cavernous sinus are unremarkable.
Minimal mucosal thickening is noted in the maxillary antra bilaterally. Minimal fluid is noted along the posterior wall of the sphenoid sinus. A small amount of fluid is also noted in the left lateral recess of the sphenoid sinus (scan 106.16).
There is no obvious outpouching of the meninges through a break in the floor of the anterior cranial fossa or the sphenoid sinus.
Review of the CT Scan dated 00.00.00, reveals thinning of the right lateral wall of the sphenoid sinus with probable erosion of the same and extension of the previously described lesion in the right cavernous sinus into the sphenoid sinus.
The T2 Weighted axial images of the brain do not reveal any significant feature of note, except for mild fullness of both the lateral ventricles.
IMPRESSION :
1. A residual pituitary adenoma in the right cavernous sinus inclose relation to the postero-inferior margin of the anterior pituitary gland on the right. Probable extension of the lesion into the sphenoid sinus along its right lateral margin is noted.
2. Minimal mucosal thickening in the maxillary antra bilaterally with minimal fluid along the posterior margin of the sphenoid sinus and in the left lateral recess of sphenoid sinus.
3. No definite meningeal outpouching is noted on this study, though extension of the lesion in the right cavernous sinus into the sphenoid sinus along its right lateral margin is noted.

CLINICAL PROFILE :
C/O primary amenorrhea.
