Nonsurgical Treatment of Lumbosacral Blastomycosis Involving L2–S1

Abstract

There are no pathognomonic findings of blastomycosis on magnetic resonance imaging. Fungal osteomyelitis is rarely identified in this country, and blastomycosis is even less often diagnosed. This case illustrates that fungal osteomyelitis should be considered in the radiographic differential diagnosis until a definitive diagnosis is made through biopsy.
