The six patients in group A reported that the initial symptoms of discitis had appeared a mean of 15 days after surgery; on average, antibiotic treatment was started 31 days following operation and continued for 62 days, and symptoms ...

The roentgenologic course of postoperative discitis is described in 111 patients examined with laminar tomography. The earliest lesion was blurring of the end plate or minor destructions, leading to cavitation of the vertebral body. Mean time from operation to the first clinical symptoms was 3 weeks. Mean time from operation to first radiologic lesions

The non-specific clinical features included refusal to walk (63%), back pain (27%), inability to flex the lower back (50%) and a loss of lumbar
