[Tactics in surgical treatment of combined and complicated forms of active tuberculosis of the spine and lung]
Abstract
Questions related to surgical treatment of combined forms of active spinal and pulmonary tuberculosis are discussed. The results of conservative and surgical treatment of 14 patients with this pathology were analysed. Tactics of treatment of such patients was established. It was shown that emergency surgery on the spine because of the developing complications can be performed together with intensive antituberculous therapy.
