title: Vertebra plana with paraplegia in a middle-aged woman caused by B-cell lymphoma: a case report.
abstract: Vertebra plana is a rare presentation of spinal lymphoma. When radiological picture of a patient of paraplegia presents vertebra plana, diagnosis becomes a challenge. In a developing country like India tuberculosis should also be a consideration. Even histology sometimes fails to conclude a diagnosis. Immunohistochemistry is of immense help in clinching a diagnosis.
