Abstract :
<p> Background : treatment of tuberculosis of spine has various modalities ranging from medical to various surgical form including just drainage of pus to only decompression and decompression with instrumentation.<span style="background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial;"> The goals of surgery include radical deidement of the infective focus. Use of anterior and anteriolateral both approach are described but this study focuses on their comparison.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal">Material and methods: 110 patients of both sex (68 male, 42 female ) with tuberculosis of dorsal spine reviewed. Mean age of patients 42.3 years (.Patients were divided into three groups .Group I consists of 43 patients , group II consists of 30 patients and 37 patients in anteriolateral group.<o:p></o:p></p> <p class="MsoNormal">Result: Correction of kyphosis and maintenance is better with anterior approach with instrumentation but it has more duration and blood loss as compared to anteriolateral approach . Neurological improvement is almost same in both approach.<o:p></o:p></p>
