Overview
Pott's disease resembles spinal tumors, spinal cord abscess, Mycobacterium kansasii, nocardiosis, septic arthritis, metastatic cancer, multiple myeloma, miliary tuberculosis, spinal fungal infections, and Mycobacterium avium-intracellulare and needs to be differentiated from them.

- Mycobacterium kansasii
- Nocardiosis
- Paracoccidioidomycosis
- Septic arthritis
- Metastatic cancer[1]
- Multiple myeloma
- Miliary tuberculosis
- Actinomycosis
- Blastomycosis
- Brucellosis
- Candidiasis
- Cryptococcosis
- Histoplasmosis
- Mycobacterium avium-intracellulare
