Infectious Discitis and Spondylodiscitis in Children [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2016 In children, infectious discitis (D) and infectious spondylodiscitis (SD) are rare diseases that can cause significant clinical problems, including spinal deformities and segmental instabilities. Moreover, when the infection spreads into the spinal channel, D and SD can cause devastating neurologic complications.

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

Postoperative discitis (POD) continues to be a diagnostic challenge and its management remains variable. This article raises the following questions and presents new observations. What is the current role of the CT scan in POD? Is a uniform pathogen involved and is there a basis for the duration of intravenous antibiotics?
