Hi, Than for Firstly to start with the symptoms of Tb spine are malaise, loss of weight, loss of appetite, night sweats and evening rise of temperature. The spine is stiff and painful on movement. Unusually, the first presenting symptom may be neurological deficit and kyphotic deformitytreatmentNON OPERATIVEisoniazid, vitamin, and pyrazanamide therapy for 9 to 18 monthsethambutol and streptomycin added for part of treatment. Spinal orthosis OPERATIVE TREATMENT anterior debridement with instrumented strut grafting +/- stabilization may be done for pain control and prevention of deformityADVANTAGES OF SURGICAL TREATMENTless progressive kyphosisearlier healing decreased sinus formation in patients with neurologic deficits, early debridement and decompression led to improved neurologic recovery
