Overview
This study evaluates the effectiveness of locally implantation of mesenchymal stem cell on vertebral bone defects due to infection of mycobacterium tuberculosis. there are controlled participants who receives placebo and patients who receives implantation of MSc
Description
Mesenchymal Stem Cell are implanted in Spinal Tuberculosis patient. MSC has inflammatory effect and the ability to form into new bone.
In Spinal Tuberculosis, the spread of bacteria is commonly hematogenous, where the focus of infection is at the anterior part of the vertebrae near the subchondral bone. The infection process continues, where the necrotic casseous fragments formed into local abcess that may spread to the sorrounding area.
Patient with spinal tuberculosis who receives Anti TB Drug, is planned to undergo debridement, spinal stabilization. After thorough debridement, patient who fall into control group receives normal saline injection, patients who fall into treatment group will receive Mesenchymal Stem Cell.
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria:
- Clinicoradiologically diagnoses Spinal Tuberculosis
- receives Anti TB drugs
- minimun destruction 1/3 vertebral body
Exclusion Criteria:
- patient under 15 years old
