Sumario:INTRODUCTION: Atypical Scheuermann disease involves one or two vertebral bodies which result in kyphosis. CASE REPORT: An 18-year-old male presented in OPD with a complaint of chronic lower back pain without any lower limb pain and neurological deficit. Radiological imaging and blood parameters were in favor of atypical Scheuermann disease. CONCLUSION: Radiological and blood investigations are required to rule out other possible causes of chronic back pain to make a diagnosis of atypical Scheuermann disease which should be treated conservatively initially.
