Abstract

We report an unusual case of brucellar spondylitis, involving both the cervical and lumbar spine. Diagnosis was established using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). An initial plain radiograph of the lumbar spine, showing mild degenerative lesions, was misleading. Therefore, institution of a proper treatment was delayed.
