Zusammenfassung
Ein 55jähriger Mann mit seit zwei Wochen andauernden lumbalen Schmerzen wurde in der orthopädischen Klinik untersucht. Die Evolution des klinischen Bildes und eine Knochenszintigraphie ermöglichten die Diagnose. Dieser klinische Fall und das wissenschaftliche Schrifttum zeigten, wie wichtig eine routinemäßige Knochenszintigraphie in der Diagnostik von Knochenmetastasen ist.
Summary
A case of a 55-year-old man was remitted to Traumatology Department to present back pain of two weeks of evolution. The results of bone scintigraphy and the patient’s evolution allowed the diagnosis. This case report and a literature review showed the importance of using a routine bone scan in diagnosis of bone metastases.
