Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

spondylodiscitis is characterized by infection that primarily affects the intervertebral disc and adjacent vertebrae. The estimated incidence of spondylodiscitis, ranging from 0.2 to 10 per 100,000 inhabitants per year, has increased in recent years, which is likely associated with an aging population, higher prevalence of chronic disease, and more effective diagnostic techniques. Spondylodiscitis is a life-threatening disease with a mortality rate of 2-20% that is often associated with potential complications, such as paraspinal abscess, epidural abscess, meningitis, spinal instability, and neurologic deficiency. The relapse rates were reported to be as high as 32% in the literature. The aims of this study are to evaluate improvements, complications, recurrence and reoperation rates in Assiut university hospitals.
