Errors in the diagnosis of tuberculous spondylitis
From 1983 to 1986, 42 patients (25 men and 17 women) with tuberculous spondylitis were treated in the department of bone and joint tuberculosis at the Almetyevsk Anti-Tuberculosis Dispensary. Two patients were under the age of 18, 15 patients were between 19 and 40, 17 patients were between 41 and 60, and 8 patients were older than 61. These data do not agree with the idea that children are predominantly affected by this disease. We attribute tuberculous spondylitis detected in our patients at an older and elderly age to the exacerbation of latent infection suppressed in their childhood.
