Abstract

Spinal infections comprise a large spectrum of clinical manifestations with multiple etiologies. Therefore, early detection and management are imperative to reduce morbidity and potential mortality associated with such conditions. Treatment modalities include using antibiotics based on the etiological agent and the neurosurgical team's possible intervention involvement. We present the case of a 52-year-old male patient who presented with lower back pain and was diagnosed with MRSA spondylodiscitis confirmed radiologically with MRI spine on a background of recent admission with MRSA line sepsis that was confirmed microbiologically through blood cultures. The patient was treated conservatively with a prolonged course of antibiotics and was followed up routinely to monitor response to treatment. Our case report describes MRSA spondylodiscitis clinical manifestation, diagnostic tests, treatment plan, and long-term outcome.
保守治疗合并MRSA脊柱椎间盘炎1例
脊柱感染包括多种病因的广泛临床表现。因此,早期发现和管理对于降低与此类疾病相关的发病率和潜在死亡率至关重要。治疗方式包括根据病因和神经外科团队可能介入的情况使用抗生素。我们报告了一名52岁男性患者的病例,他表现为下背部疼痛,被诊断为MRSA脊柱椎间盘炎,最近入院的背景是MRSA线败血症,通过血液培养证实了微生物学。患者接受延长疗程的抗生素保守治疗,并例行随访以监测治疗反应。我们的病例报告描述了MRSA脊椎炎的临床表现、诊断测试、治疗计划和长期结果。
