An unusual cause of spinal bone loss detected by DXA scanning.

H Davies1, M W J Davie.   

Abstract

Routine DXA scanning in a 68-year-old asymptomatic man undergoing long-term bisphosphonate treatment for osteogenesis imperfecta showed unexplained loss of bone mineral density in two lumbar vertebrae. Subsequent radiographs revealed a 14-cm abdominal aortic aneurysm eroding the vertebrae. The importance of reviewing all the vertebrae in DXA scans is emphasized, and reasons for the absence of symptoms suggested.
