title: [Current aspects of spinal tuberculosis. Apropos of 10 cases].
abstract: Between 1990 and 1993 we observed 10 cases of spinal tuberculosis. Magnetic resonance imaging largely contributed to diagnosis and detection of early neurological complications. Medical treatment is essential and must be given for a sufficient duration. Indications for surgery are exceptional and are usually reserved for severe neurological complications.
