case_images: A series of radiographic and CT scan depicted multiple vertebral body destruction anteriorly, along with facet joint dislocation and mild retrolisthesis of C4-C5 segments (Figs. 1, 2).
case_images: Preoperative CT images demonstrated extensive vertebral body destruction, several facet joint dislocations and mild retrolisthesis of C4 to C5 segment.

case_images: A series of radiographic and CT scan depicted multiple vertebral body destruction anteriorly, along with facet joint dislocation and mild retrolisthesis of C4-C5 segments (Figs. 1, 2).
case_images: Sagittal cervicothoracic MR images demonstrated pathologic contrast enhancement on C4 to T7 segments along with vertebral body involvement and spinal canal compression at the level of C4 to T4. From coronal MR images, a large paravertebral abscess was presented anteriorly.

case_images: T7 vertebrae, a total of fourteen contiguous segments, with spinal canal stenosis on the level of C4 to T4 and bilateral anterolateral paravertebral soft tissue abscess at the level of C4 to T9 (Fig. 3). Those findings were highly typical of spinal tuberculosis.
case_images: Postoperative radiograph demonstrated pedicle rod and screw construct that resulted in improved kyphotic deformity.
