Tuberculose vertebral

Abstract

Objetivos: A tuberculose vertebral ou Mal de Pott é uma forma da tuberculose extrapulmonar, onde ocorre o comprometimento da coluna vertebral em até 50% dos casos de comprometimento ósseo. Temos como objetivo demonstrar a importância desta afecção em nosso meio e compartilhar a experiência de nosso serviço no tratamento da enfermidade. Métodos: Foram coletadas informações sobre os casos de tuberculose vertebral diagnosticados e tratados em nosso serviço, totalizando 23 pacientes em 30 anos, durante os quais foram acompanhados evolutivamente neste período, com follow up de até 6 anos. Observamos queixas iniciais, presença de déficit motor e de dor radicular; submetemos todos os pacientes a tratamento cirúrgico individualizado, sendointroduzido esquema tríplice, com avaliação da evolução dos pacientes. Resultados: Obtivemos melhora em 8 dos 9 pacientes com déficit neurológico, sendo que 6 (75%) pacientes obtiveram recuperação de 1 ou mais pontos na escala de força e 2 (25%) retornaram para força grau V. Conclusão: Atuberculose vertebral é uma afecção deformante com grande potencial de déficit neurológico, cujo diagnóstico é realizado com base em dados clínicos, reforçados pelos resultados de exames de imagem, e confirmados pelo resultado de anátomo-patológico e cultura. Normalmente, ocorre uma ótimaresposta a descompressão do canal medular e ao uso de antibióticos do esquema tríplice.
