Popis: Three cases are presented with computed tomographic evidence of gas in retroperitoneal soft tissues in association with the so-called "vacuum phenomenon" (Knutsson sign) in lumbar disks. We review the explanations of Knutsson sign and offer an explanation of how extradiscal gas can occur in association with it.
