Degenerative disc disease (DDD) is a major health problem worldwide. Both Modic lesions and Schmorl's nodes are considered to correlate with DDD such as low back pain. Modic lesions are the changes of degenerative vertebral endplate and adjacent bone marrow observed on magnetic resonance imaging and are divided into three types. Modic type III lesions are thought to represent extensive subchondral bone sclerosis within the bone marrow of adjacent endplate. The pathological performance of Schmorl's nodes is cystic lesions around indistinct sclerotic margins and beneath the cartilaginous endplate. Coincidently, there are many similarities between Modic type III lesions and Schmorl's nodes including pathological appearances, pathogenetic location and related diseases.
