Where is metastasis rare?
distal to knees and elbows
Radiographic features of vertebral metastasis:
ivory vertebra, pedicle destruction, pathologic collapse, focal osteoporosis of a body, and malignant schmorl’s node formation
Solitary ivory vertebra most likely indicates:
- Paget’s
- Hodgkin’s lymphoma
- Osteoblastic metastasis
