Young thoracic vertebra diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis with Scheuermann disease: A case report

Figure 4 Thoracic magnetic resonance imaging before treatment. A-C: An magnetic resonance imaging of the thoracic spine revealed a kyphosis in the local thoracic region. The T8-12 vertebral bodies were observed to have a wedge-like shape, with a narrow front and a wide back; D-F: They were the T5/6, T7/8, and T8/9 intervertebral spaces. The T5/6, T7/8, and T8/9 intervertebral discs protrude backward, and the corresponding horizontal segment of the dural sac is compressed.
