- Abstract
- To display the unusual spinal CT and MR findings in a 48-year-old North African woman presenting with two adjacent intracanalar mineralized epidural outgrowths exhibiting mature bone organization with "cortical" and "trabecular" areas and pseudoarthritic changes at their interface. An unusual form of ligamentum flavum ossification (LFO) was speculated, of which features are discussed under the light of the available literature.
