Description: Radiology case 471-3222 38 year old male with pain in back and paraplegia.
There is a dense mass in the right lower zone with some crowding of right 9th and 10th ribs. An earlier higher penetration view shows the 10th rib expanded by the tumour. Note how the dense bone of the tumour seems to be in layers over the rib, hiding it. The lateral view shows the destruction of the posterior section of the right 9th rib.
