Gloassary term:

Shiny corner sign

The shiny corner sign refers to radiographic sclerosis at the anterior corners of vertebral bodies, visible as bright, dense areas on spinal X-rays. It indicates reactive bone formation due to inflammation or stress, commonly seen in early ankylosing spondylitis. Recognising this sign aids early diagnosis and management of inflammatory spinal disorders.
