TUBERCULOUS SPONDYLODISCITIS IN A RENAL TRANSPLANT RECIPIENT - A CASE REPORT.

Diagnosis of tuberculous spondylodiscitis is difficult because clinical findings usually are nonspecific and radiological features may mimic other bacterial, fungal, inflammatory and neoplastic diseases. We present the first reported case of tuberculous spondylodiscitis in a 56-year-old man successfully treated by rifampicin-containing anti tuberculosis regimen with close follow-up of serum cyclosporine levels.
