Figure 1 (A).

Radiological and magnetic resonance imaging pictures of a 27-year-old male with tubercular spondylitis D10–12 with neurological deficit. Patient treated with anterolateral decompression and antituberculous treatment and he had partial recovery. (a-d): Plain X-rays at presentation, 6 months, 12 months, and 24 months. (a) Initial X-rays both anteroposterior and lateral show paradiscal lesion D10–D12 with endplate destruction, vertebral body destruction and soft tissue shadows. Lesions showed healing with reduction in soft tissue shadows (b) with endplate sclerosis and fusion (c and d). (e-h) Short tau inversion recovery images of magnetic resonance imaging. (e) Initial short tau inversion recovery images show hyperintense signal intensity which decreased with time (f-h)
