Abstract:
:A 36-year-old male with history of industrial accident causing traumatic left hip disarticulation, pubic symphysis and right sacroiliac joint fractures presented with a three-year history of left-sided lower back pain radiating down the amputated limb. Computed tomography lumbar spine showed osteophytes surrounding the sacroiliac joint bilaterally with reduced left L4-L5 foraminal space. A fluoroscopically-guided left sacroiliac steroid injection led to mild improvement in low back pain. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the lumbar spine without contrast showed transitional type L5 vertebral body with left-sided flowing osteophytes abutting the extraforaminal L4 and L5 nerves. Ultimately, multi-level left fluoroscopically-guided transforaminal epidural steroid injection at L4-L5 and L5-S1 significantly improved symptoms. Though phantom radiculopathy is a rare entity, clinical suspicion of degenerative spine disease or other pathology contributing to nerve impingement in patients with amputations should remain; this unique case discusses bony osteophyte complex as the cause for phantom radiculopathy instead of previously described disc herniation. MRI remains a key tool in delineating causes of low back pain among patients with lower extremity amputations.
