ABSTRACT

Aim. Early diagnosis can prevent complications of disease spinal instability, neurologic impairment or deformity xiphotic. Materials and methods. We studied 93 patients from January 1994 to December 2009 with a diagnosis of Pott’s disease. All patients had neurological involvement and data vertebral fracture instability in pathological field. The diagnosis was made by laboratory studies: BH, with ESR, sputum and urine and sputum culture. Immunologic: PPD, Elisa for tubercle bacillus Inmunocromatografía, and PCR. Results. Four patients did not return from the delayed treatment paraplegia, 89 mobility returns to perform surgical cleaning of the focus of infection and fusion for spinal stability, more antituberculous medical treatment for one year. Conclusion. In the last decade, this disease has reemerged because of several factors: natural disasters force people to live in shelters or overcrowded, poverty in some countries they live and the suffering that accompanies AIDS.
