Overview
Surgery
Indications for Surgery
The following are the indications for surgery in patients with Pott's disease:[1][2][3]
- Neurological deficits
- Potential mechanical instability
- Kyphosis leading to sagittal imbalance or severe kyphosis ≥60°
- Large thoracic spine abscess casing esophageal obstruction or cervical abscess causing difficulty in breathing
- Abscess increasing in size even after 3 to 6 months of standard medical therapy
- Worsening neurological function during the period of medical therapy
- Children ≤7 years of age, with three or more affected vertebral bodies
Surgical Options
- Surgical therapy for spinal tuberculosis is by decompression of the cord with debridement of the infected tissue via the anterior or anterolateral approach.[4]
- Anterior transposition of cord with shaving of the internal gibbus can be performed in patients with severe kyphotic deformities with compression of the cord.[5][6]
- Laminectomy for decompression is contraindicated in cases with anterior spinal tuberculosis, as it increases the unstability of the spine.[7]
