Surgical treatment of aspergillus fumigatus spondylitis in a cirrhotic patient: a rare case report
In summary, in addition to patients with low immune function who should be evaluated for fungal spondylitis, patients with infectious diseases of the spine who are immunocompetent but have comorbid cirrhosis should be evaluated when treatment fails. If the diagnosis cannot be made by conventional or unconventional methods, surgical methods should be used in a timely manner for diagnosis and treatment.
