A 47-year-old male with T12-L1 vertebral tuberculosis under wentnon-diseased intervertebral surgery by combined posterior-anterior approaches. The preoperative images (a X-ray, b CT reconstruction and c MRI) showed destruction of the T12-L1 interverte bral space and spinal cord compression. Postoperative X-ray (d, e), 64 months after surgery, showed that intervertebral fixation was excellent, and the L1 vertebrae are fixed with short pedicle screws and CT reconstruction (f) illustrated that L3–4 vertebral tuberculosis was completely cured, bone graft fusion and no obvious correction angle loss with good fixation position
