Abstract
Baastrup's disease is a rare condition of the vertebral column often misdiagnosed and wrongly treated due to poor knowledge, characterized by low back pain arising from the close approximation of adjacent posterior spinous processes and resultant degenerative changes. Diagnosis rests on clinical examination and detailed imaging studies. Proposed therapies include conservative treatment, percutaneous infiltrations or surgical therapies. We present the case of a 31-year-old man with persistent chronic lumbago for several years. In whom, the diagnosis of Baastrup's disease was high suspected clinically, with a final surgical treatment despite the absence of inflammation on imaging studies, which allowed the diagnostic confirmation and the return to a normal social and professional life. We wish through this case, to expose the different steps of interventional diagnostic/therapeutical procedures until the surgical management in a clinical suspicion of Baastrup's diseases with unclear radiological findings.
