Özet

A 54-year-old female patient was admitted to our outpatient clinic with back and low back pain. There were no remarkable physical or neurological findings in the two-year followup period of the patient. There were 39 lesions at 17 levels (mean diameter: 5.93 +/- 2.77 [range, 1.00 to 12.2] mm) in entire vertebra in magnetic resonance imaging and more than one perineural cysts were observed adjacent to the same nerve root at several vertebrae levels. In this patient, conservative treatment was preferred.
