Spinal actinomycosis: a rare disease.

Rakesh K Dua1, Dhananjaya I Bhat, Devi B Indira.   

Abstract

Actinomycosis is an indolent, slowly progressive infection caused by Actinomyces species. Of human actinomycosis, the spinal form is rare and actinomycosis-related spinal neurological deficit is uncommon. We report two cases with cervical and dorsal actinomycosis and one of them with spinal neurological deficit.
