* Spinal tuberculosis (STB) is a common form of extrapulmonary tuberculosis (TB), accounting for 3.7% of TB cases in the United States.* The most common presentation is chronic back pain, for which the diagnosis of STB can be easily overlooked, leading to the development of neurological deficits and osseous deformities of ...

Spinal tuberculosis in pregnancy
International Journal of Gynecology & Obstetrics, 2008Treatment with dipirone produced satisfactory results. Highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) with a triple combination of lamivudine (3TC), zidovudine (AZT), and nelfinavir was started concomitantly, as was prophylactic treatment with sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim.

The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 1984
The familiar picture of spinal tuberculosis is one of destruction of adjacent vertebral bodies and of the intervening disc. There are, however, other patients without these radiographic changes and with no clinical deformity who present with symptoms and signs of compression of the spinal cord or cauda equina.

Although the incidence of tuberculosis is decreasing, spinal tuberculosis is still an important disease. Delay in diagnosis and treatment results in long-term disability. We reviewed our cases of spinal tuberculosis diagnosed between 1975 and 1982, with special reference to those features that permit early diagnosis.

Spinal tuberculosis in children
Archives of Disease in Childhood, 2012To review our experience of spinal tuberculosis (TB) at a major UK paediatric tertiary referral centre.The authors performed a retrospective case survey of 21 patients admitted to Great Ormond Street Hospital over a 15-year period (1995-2010) with confirmed or presumed spinal TB.

A 24-year-old woman was treated by the authors for an atypical form of spinal tuberculosis. The patient had simultaneous involvement of T1, T7, and the right ilium. At the T7 level, the anterior and posterior vertebral elements were involved. These findings closely mimicked spinal malignancies. There was no evidence of pulmonary tuberculosis.

Tropical Doctor, 2001
Spinal tuberculosis is an important and potentially crippling disease, but if recognized early and treated energetically it can be brought under control, often with very gratifying results. Knowledge of the exact bacteriology and sensitivity pattern of the organisms involved can be very helpful indeed, and should be sought where possible.

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 2002
Typical spinal tuberculosis is readily diagnosed and treated. Certain atypical clinical and radiologic presentations of spinal tuberculosis are described. Failure to recognize these presentations may lead to delay in diagnosis and initiation of treatment. In some atypical forms of the disease, this may have disastrous consequences.

Prediction of Deformity in Spinal Tuberculosis
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 2007Tuberculosis of the spine may cause kyphosis, which may in turn cause late paraplegia, respiratory compromise, and unsightly deformity. Surgical correction therefore may be considered for large or progressive deformities. We retrospectively analyzed clinical and radiographic parameters to predict the final kyphotic angle in spinal tuberculosis and to ...
