Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics
  • Neurosurgery
  • Infectious Diseases

Context:

  • Spinal tuberculosis (tuberculosis of the spine) presents significant challenges in treatment.
  • Surgical intervention is often necessary for managing spinal tuberculosis, particularly in cases with neurological compromise or deformity.
  • Traditional multi-stage surgeries can lead to prolonged treatment durations and increased patient morbidity.

Purpose:

  • To evaluate the clinical efficacy and outcomes of a one-stage surgical management protocol for spinal tuberculosis.
  • To assess the safety, effectiveness, and complication rates associated with this consolidated surgical approach.

Summary:

  • A study of 57 patients with spinal tuberculosis treated via a one-stage procedure (including anterior resection, interbody autografting, and instrumentation) demonstrated successful outcomes.

  • Patients experienced excellent wound healing, no chronic infections or sinus formation, and no recurrence of tuberculosis during a mean follow-up of 2.2 years.
  • The procedure achieved an average of 21.6 degrees of kyphosis correction, with solid spinal fusion observed radiologically in an average of 3.8 months.
  • Impact:

    • One-stage surgical management provides a consolidated and effective treatment option for spinal tuberculosis, potentially reducing treatment time and improving patient recovery.
    • The use of titanium-alloy or stainless steel implants for anterior or posterior instrumentation is safe and effective in this context.
    • Individualized planning is crucial for selecting the optimal one-stage surgical procedure for each patient.
