    Author: Cherifi S, Guillaume MP, Peretz A.
    Journal: Acta Clin Belg; 2000; 55(1):34-6. PubMed ID: 10783506.
    Abstract:
    We report a case of multidrug-resistant spinal tuberculosis complicated by epiduritis and paraspinal abscess in a 68-year-old black woman. Multidrug-resistant tuberculous spondylitis is still rare in Belgium. Two others cases were reported from 1992 to 1997. The optimal therapy is not standardized and the mandatory duration of treatment is not known. Clinical presentation, radiological findings, and treatment are presented. The need for prompt diagnosis and optimal therapy is emphasized.
