Spinal tuberculosis with paraplegia

Spinal tuberculosis complicated with paraplegia is caused by comprehensive reasons such as cavity fluid, cheese substance, dead bone or necrotic disc. In the late stage of the disease, fibrotic scars in the spinal canal can surround the spinal cord, and the vertebrae can be pathologically dislocated or subdislocated. Sorrel and Sorrel-Dejerin (1925) described early paraplegia as paraplegia occurred within 2 years of spinal tuberculosis, and after 2 years paraplegia was late paraplegia.
