What is the condition of holes in spinal bone called?

Years ago, I was diagnosed with 'Scheuermann's Disease' and shown Xrays which disclosed holes in the spinal bone.
Today I found out via a web site, that Scheuermanns Disease is about spinal curvature! I do not have a curved spine AT ALL. So I went and tried to find out what holes in the spinal bone is actually called. I could not find this data. I tried to use the contact button, but that was for clinical trials only. So, I decided to pose my question here on yahoo. Does anyone here know the answer??

Answers:
It is called

Hydromyelia and syringomyelia
Osteoporosis is what I believe it is.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/osteoporosi...

Oesteo - Back
Porosis - Holes
(Osteoporosis is, I believe, a degenerative disease that has to do with a weakening of the bones in general)

It sounds like Spina bifida occulta, that was my first instinct when I read the question.
