Abstract
The differential diagnosis between degenerative and infectious spinal abnormalities can be challenging for neurosurgeons due to the subjectivity of the patient’s symptoms and physical findings, and inconclusive MRI data. This report describes a case of a cervical intervertebral disc hernia with surprising MRI findings suggesting the possibility of an epidural abscess formation

Abstract
Servikal disk hernisi ve epidural apsenin radyolojik görüntüleri bazen ayrıcı tanımda karışıklığa sebep olabilmektedir. MR bulgularının her iki tanı için de benzerlik göstermesi klinisyen açısından zorluk oluşturmaktadır. Her ikisinin hazırlığı, tedavisi farklı olduğu için ayrıcı tanıda ikisi de düşünülmelidir. Hastanın semptomları, nörolojik muayenesi ve MR bulguları yazıda tanımlanmıştır
