Abstract |
We report a case of 67-year-old woman with 11-year history of hemodialysis that complain of neck pain associated with cervico-brachial neuralgia. Imaging finding simulate infectious spondylitis. We consider the diagnosis of destructive spondylarthropathy in hemodialyzed patient since etiologic investigation was negative and RMN finding was suggestive. Our patient was partially improved with symptomatic treatment.
