Abstract
Two cases of vertebral sarcoidosis in pediatric patients are presented. All such patients reported were black, 13-15 yr old, and had a history of back pain. Radiographs of the involved vertebrae showed primarily lytic destruction with sclerotic borders in some of the lesions. Fungal infections, tuberculosis, pyogenic osteomyelitis, Hodgkin''s disease and metastatic disease must be considered in every patient with vertebral sarcoidosis.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
