IMPACT OF PERIOPERATIVE RISK FACTORS ON THE FORMATION OF INFECTIOUS COMPLICATIONS OF SURGICAL TREATMENT OF TUBERCULOSIS SPONDYLITIS
Abstract
The retrospective study of surgical treatment of 463 tuberculosis spondylitis patients having 745 surgical operations has been conducted. Post-surgery complications have been found in 96 (12.9%) patients. Nosocomial infection was observed as early post-surgery complication in 23 (3.1%) patients. Some postponed complications in 16 (2.3%) patients were due to the progress of the specific lesions. The application of combined implants as well as early surgical treatment of patients with non-complicated course of tuberculosis spondylitis without any significant dysfunction of main organs and systems and potential mortality threat, were followed by less number of post-surgery complications.
