Non-specific purulent-inflammatory lesions of the spine are rather difficult to diagnose and severe diseases. The demand for the problems of diagnosis and treatment of Non-specific purulent-inflammatory lesions is explained by the increase in the incidence of this pathology, the emergence of new antibiotic-resistant strains of microorganisms, the severity of the disease and poor treatment outcomes. The review considers in detail the following vertebral infections: spondylodiscitis and epiduritis. Based on literature data, the authors thoroughly studied and described the etiology, clinical picture and diagnosis of these diseases. Thoroughly covered in the work are modern methods of diagnosing spondylodiscitis and epiduritis: laboratory, radiation methods: spondylography, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, scintigraphy, positron emission tomography of the spine and biopsy data. Detailed description of modern methods of conservative and surgical treatment. Particular attention is paid to the technique of surgical treatment of spondylodiscitis and epiduritis.
