Diagnosis and management of de novo non-specific spinal infections: European Association of Neurosurgical Societies (EANS) Spine Section Delphi consensus recommendations
This EANS consensus provides updated recommendations for SD management, incorporating recent evidence on improved outcomes with surgical therapy. While these guidelines offer a more structured approach to clinical decision-making, further research is required to optimize surgical timing and validate the long-term impact of these treatment strategies.
