Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Your mother's MRI report suggests a very serious problem and you need to see a spinal surgeon or a neurosurgeon urgently (attachment removed to protect patient identity). The top of your mother's spine has tuberculosis of the bone and that has left her with a very unstable fracture which is life-threatening and your mother needs urgent attention. She needs to keep lying flat till you see a doctor and a collar needs to be applied before you move her. Do not delay, as she may need surgery and anti-tubercular treatment.
