Abstract

Abstract:

Brucellosis spondylitis has been increasing in recent years, because of the low early diagnosis rate, there is often the possibility of misdiagnosis and mistreatment, resulting in the difficulty of later treatment and disability of patients. In order to standardize the diagnosis and treatment process of patients with Brucella spondylitis, help more specialist to get the treatment details of such disease, and have evidence in the treatment, the Expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of Brucella spondylitis was jointly formulated by the Joint Tuberculosis Professional Branch of Chinese Antituberculosis Association, the Western China Bone Tuberculosis Union, the North China Union of Bone Tuberculosis. This consensus starts from the epidemiological characteristics of Brucella spondylitis, deeply expounds and discusses its common clinical manifestations, laboratory examination and diagnostic criteria, therapeutic drugs, surgical treatment methods, prognosis and so on.

Key words: Brucellosis, Spondylitis, Diagnosis, Therapeutic uses, Consensus development conferences as topic
