Abstract:
The authors described 2 patients with spinal tuberculosis. The first one was presented with multiple anterior marginal involvement of vertebral bodies, centrosomatic spondylitis of L3, associated with a syndesmophytic showing spinal ossification. In the second case, spinal tuberculosis involved the vertebral arc of L2 and L4. A paravertebral ossification on both sides of L4 was seen. The nature of these vertebral and paravertebral ossifications was discussed.
