ABSTRACT
In the tuberculosis of bone and joint, the spine is the most prevalent site and its treatment was improved with operative procedure, but still tuberculous spondylitis has remained as a serious and chronic infectious disease in developing areas including Korea. Tuberculous spinal lesions were thoracic, lumbar and thoracolumbar in order, and sacrococcygeal junction was very rare in the published literature, and none reported in Korea. This case was combined with pulmonary tuberculosis and confirmative diagnosis could be made by smear and pathologic findings. Satisfactory result was obtained by abscess drainage and radical curettage with antituberculous medication.
