[Case reports of the Kümmel-Verneuil syndrome].
The significance of the complex clinical-radiological diagnosis is demonstrated in three cases of the Kümmel-Verneuil syndrome, the bone scintigraphy allows the demonstration and localisation of the bone process, but in respect to the differential diagnosis the results are unspecific. The CT allows an early and sure demonstration of the intravertebral vacuum phenomenon. In patients with nonspecific vertebral fractures the quantitative determination of the mineral content of the vertebral bones is indicated. The therapeutic decision is determined by the necessity of the biomechanical stabilisation.
