[Inoculation spondylodiskitis].
An enquiry on French rheumatology units permitted the authors to collect 122 cases of inoculation spondylodiscitis from 1967 to 1979, whereas over the same period were observed on these units 793 cases of spontaneous non-tuberculous spondylodiscitis. There were also 10 cases of spondylodiscitis after discography. Discal curettage was the most frequent cause. The staphylococcus is the germ most commonly encountered. The course is on the whole favourable, without clinical sequelae and a radiological blockage only occurred in 25 cases.
