| dc.description.abstract | Aspergillus, a rare agent in spinal infections, is often transmitted via inhalation. It can be traced as an infectious agent in immunocompromised patients. While in non-immunocompromised patients, it is highly unlikely to cause spondylodiscitis. Radiological findings remind tuberculosis. The recommended medical treatment is applied with Itraconazole and Amphotericin B. Surgical indication involves the presence of progressive neurological deficit, instability and biopsy requirement. Fibrous dysplasia was first reported in 1938 by Lichtenstein and is a benign developmental disorder of the skeletal system with uncertain etiology. Polyostotic type involved more than one bone, while the monostotic type occurs by involving only one bone structure. Spinal involvement may lead to collapse fractures and deformity development and the most common complaint is pain. In our case, these two disorders occur concurrently, causing bone destruction and severe pain, and no similar cases were found in the literature. | en_US |
