Spinal cord abscess: a review.

A H Menezes, C J Graf, G E Perret.   

Abstract

The literature on abscesses in the spinal cord has been reviewed. A total of 54 cases was reported. A digest is made of information on the subject including the diagnosis, pathology, treatment and the results to be expected. The best results have been achieved by operation plus antibiotic therapy. It is essential that the abscess be drained after aspiration. A case of ours showing the salient features and management of a subacute cervical spinal cord abscess is also reported.
