One stage posterior debridement, non-structural bone graft in the surgical treatment of single segment thoracic tuberculosis: A retrospective single-center cohort study

Abstract

Non-structural bone graft has less surgical trauma and shorter bone fusion time compared with structural bone graft in the surgical treatment of single segment thoracic tuberculosis. The two methods may achieve comparable clinical efficacy in alleviating symptoms, correcting kyphosis and improving neurological function for appropriate cases.
