摘要
We report on 14 patients with tuberculosis of the spine treated by operation. All had disease of three or more vertebrae with involvement of both the anterior and posterior columns and a progressive kyphotic deformity in spite of conservative treatment. We consider such spines to be 'unstable' and have found that anterior as well as posterior fusion with instrumentation is necessary.
