摘要：

OBJECTIVE. We describe the imaging findings of an unusual type of Schmorl's node appearing as giant cystlike lesion of the vertebral bodies. CONCLUSION. Giant cystic Schmorl's nodes are unusual entities: their radiologic appearance differs dramatically from the classic description and is diagnostically challenging. However. the appearance of these nodes on conventional radiographs and especially on MR images is characteristic. Knowledge of this entity would help to eliminate unnecessary invasive diagnostic or therapeutic procedures.
