The spinal cord is involved in less than 1% of all cases of tuberculosis (TB). Non-contiguous spinal tuberculosis are found mostly in places with high prevalence like India but very few case reports have been published worldwide. Most of these patients have only two non-contiguous lesions, The disease is usually accompanied by severe neurologic deficits. Here,we report a case of 11 year old girl presenting with on and off fever for 1 year and paraparesis for 1 month.On examination two gibus were found at T5-T6 and T11-T12 vertebrae.She was treated with anti tubercular drugs(ATT) and physiotherapy was given.
