Description
Negin Parsa, Amirpasha Amlelshahbaz, and Hamidreza Soltani report a case in 2026 of high blood calcium in a man with two infections of the spine. The patient, a 62-year-old man, had long-term back pain and then sudden loss of leg movement. Scans and tests pointed to tuberculosis spread through his body, including his spine.
Doctors started TB drugs and drained a spinal abscess for tests. The sample confirmed TB, and tissue study also showed a fungal infection, Aspergillus, in the same site. Two germs at once can confuse care, since each needs its own drugs. The case shows why deep samples matter when spine infections act oddly.
