title: Contribution of skeletal scanning to early diagnosis of postoperative spondylodiscitis.
abstract: Scintigraphic scanning of the lumbar spine skeleton was performed in 9 patients with spondylodiscitis following an operation for the herniation of a lumbar intervertebral disk. The difference in scintigraphic findings demonstrates the valuable diagnostic contribution of this examination to an early diagnosis of postoperative spondylodiscitis.
