    Journal: Zhongguo Yi Xue Ke Xue Yuan Xue Bao; 1994 Jun; 16(3):206-9. PubMed ID: 7805166.
    Abstract:
    We have applied debridement with grafting and internal fixation techniques (including Luque and Dick procedures) in the treatment of tuberculosis of the spine in the past few years. Analysis of 18 patients showed good prognosis after the Luque or Dick procedure. The patients are able to walk around within a few days after operation. One to five years of follow-up showed no recurrence or kyphotic deformity.
