Successful Long-Term Use of Itraconazole for the Treatment of Aspergillus Diskospondylitis in a Dog
Figure 1
Lateral radiographs of the lower lumbar spine prior to (a) and after 8 years (b) of itraconazole treatment. (a) The L6-7 intervertebral disk space is collapsed and there is lysis of the endplates consistent with active diskospondylitis. (b) The L6-7 intervertebral disk space is collapsed and partially fused with smoothly marginated osseous proliferation between the ventral aspects of the vertebral bodies suggestive of healed diskospondylitis.
