A 46-year-old female patient with lumbosacral tuberculosis with L4–5 lesions who underwent posterior intervertebral space debridement with annuar bone graft fusion and fixation. a-e Preoperative X-ray, computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging showed bone destruction and abscess formation. f The intraoperative image showed posterior fixation, decompression and transintervertebral space debridement. g-j Postoperative radiographs. Postoperative CT in the axial and sagittal planes at 14 months showed a good position of internal fixation and excellent intervertebral bone fusion
