【 摘 要 】

The clinical and radiographic manifestations of maturity-onset tuberculous spondylitis were analyzed in 107 patients. If Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MBT) is drug resistant, the extent and degree of spinal bone destruction, the extent of abscess formation, and the rate of neurological disorders are greater than those in the MBT drug sensitivity group; however, the significant difference concerns only the involvement of vertebral arches in destruction. The pattern and activity of a tuberculous process in the lung and the proportion of bacteria-excreting persons with drug resistance in MBT significantly exceed those with drug sensitivity. All the patients were operated on; the diagnosis was histologically verified in 100% of cases; the postoperative specimens exhibited MBT culture in 72.9%; the polymerase chain reaction was positive n 98.9%. Bacteriological and molecular genetic studies established multiple drug resistance in 73.4%, polyresistance in 17.3%, and monoresistance in 9.3%.
