Abstract
Spinal infection can occur in a variety of clinical situations. Establishing a correct diagnosis and identifying the pathogen is of primary importance. Intravenous antibiotic therapy should be initiated early according to the culture and sensitivities results. The other primary goals are adequate and good pain relieve, improvement or preservation of the neurological function and restoration of the spinal alignment and stability.
