Usefulness of Percutaneous Drainage in Determining the Causative Microorganism in Patients with Spondylodiscitis: A Retrospective Cross-Sectional Study.

CT-guided percutaneous drainage showed a high positive rate of microorganism detection in patients with spondylodiscitis regardless of antibiotic administration prior to the procedure. CT-guided percutaneous drainage can be a solution for the detection of the causative microorganism in spondylodiscitis patients who received antibiotics before obtaining any culture.
