Atypical variant of Baastrup's disease with lumbar stenosis and cauda equina syndrome.

Conclusion: This case highlights the atypical MR features of lumbar Baastrup's disease in conjunction with stenosis. Atypical Baastrup's disease should be differentiated from classical Baastrup's disease or other infectious pathologies (e.g., Pott's disease of the spine) and appropriately treated with timely spinal decompression.
