Implication

Retrospective analysis showed that microscopic debridement improves clinical outcomes in spondylodiscitis patients, indicating its effectiveness versus fusion surgery.

Key Points

Microscopic debridement leads to favorable long-term clinical outcomes in patients with thoracolumbar spondylodiscitis.
Of 40 patients, about 63% achieved spontaneous bone union after undergoing the procedure for spinal infections.
Retrospective analysis of 128 patients between March 2017 and December 2021 evaluated surgical results and recovery.
The findings support microscopic debridement as a viable alternative to fusion surgery in certain cases.
