Introduction: One of the familiar Pulmonary tuberculosis includes TB spine especially in developing countries [1].Extra-pulmonary tuberculosis approximately involves 14% of patients, with 1% to 8 % having osseous diseases of which 30% to 50% have spinal involvement. The results of this study will direct policy makers of health management system to conceive significant involvement at clinical as well as community level. Objective: To determine the outcome in terms of improvement in segmental kyphosis in patients with thoraco-lumber spine TB medicated with combination of debridement (radical), cage fixation and grafting bones. Material and Methods: 73 patients were taken as total sample. Researchers had taken detailed history of patients and then clinically examined. All patients in whom clinical suspicion of spinal tuberculosis found was subjected to spinal cord and vertebral imaging, CT scan X-rays as well as MRI spine. Radiographs were reported by consultant radiologist. Results: 48 years was mean age of patients. Among them 65% patients were male and female patients were 35%. Furthermore segmental kyphosis has been improved in 93%victims and has not been improved in 7% victims with thoraco-lumber spinal TB spine managed with combination of cage fixation, radical debridement and grafting of bones.
