Sažetak

Diagnosis of tuberculous spondylodiscitis is difficult because clinical findings usually
are nonspecific and radiological features may mimic other bacterial, fungal, inflammatory and
neoplastic diseases. We present the first reported case of tuberculous spondylodiscitis in a 56-year-old
man successfully treated by rifampicin-containing anti tuberculosis regimen with close follow-up of
serum cyclosporine levels.
