case_images: T2 (Figure 2), taking contrast after gadolinium injection. This signal abnormality is associated with posterior unilamellar periosteal reaction of the side of the left vertebral lamina and linear hypo signal T1 of the cortical endo canal of the posterior arch of D1 and C7 with the presence of some small erosion (Figure 3). The diagnosis was in favor of a specific infection, a radiological biopsy was not able for a technical reason, so we decided to do a surgical biopsy.
