Spinal Tuberculosis, also known as Pott's Disease, is a tuberculosis-caused spinal infection that can cause osteomyelitis, kyphotic deformity, and spinal mechanical instability. A CT-guided biopsy sent for acid-fast bacilli is used to make the diagnosis. In the absence of neurological defects or mechanical instability, bracing and anti-tuberculosis antibiotics are usually used as treatment. In the presence of neurological deficits, progressive kyphosis, and/or mechanical instability, surgical management is indicated. Poverty, overcrowding, illiteracy, malnutrition, alcoholism, drug abuse, diabetes mellitus, immunosuppressive treatment, and HIV infection are all risk factors for tuberculosis. These are also risk factors for developing spinal tuberculosis.
