Abstract

BACKGROUND: Tuberculosis (TB) of the Spine if neglected can give rise to deformities and neural compromise. Early diagnosis and management can prevent these complications. In this series, we study the clinical-radiological presentation and present trends of spinal involvement in spinal TB (STB) in our Himalayan population. METHODS: This study was conducted from March 2017 to February 2020. Patient demography, clinical signs, and radiological parameters of the disease were recorded. RESULTS: 80 diagnosed patients with a mean age of 37. 6 ±,19. 1 years were included. Para-discal variety was the most common type (86. 25%) with the lumbar region the most common region involved (46. 9%). Cold abscess, deformity, and neural deficit were present in 11. 25%, 36. 25%, and 21. 25% of patients, respectively. CONCLUSION: The results of this study and the world literature suggest a global trend of the lumbar Spine being involved more often in the twenty-first century than the thoracic Spine. Besides, our Himalayan belt population had a lower incidence of clinically evident cold abscesses, discharging sinuses, Spine deformities, and associated neural deficits, which is suggestive of the early presentation of our patients to the healthcare facilities.
