Description: Radiology cases 338-3328 Clinical presentation: 70 year old man with frequency, post-micturition dribbling and some back pain.
There is a marked increase in the bone density of lumbar vertebrae and a patchy increase in sacrum and pelvis. The density is not homogeneous in the spine and its extent over the transverse processes varies at different levels. There is a convex density over the lower margin of left psoas muscle. It has a calcific margin. Two crescents of calcification are present in the pelvis, in roughly the site of the common iliac arteries.
