Outcomes of Dorsolumbar and Lumbar Spinal Tuberculosis Treated by Minimally Invasive and Open Techniques: A Prospective Comparative Study.

The MIS approaches at 2-year follow-up have functional results similar to open techniques. MIS is inferior to open techniques in kyphosis correction and may be associated with complications.
