Experiments on 77 rabbits studied the specific features of chondrogenesis during different grafting modifications for the perichondrium. The latter was found to have a high chondroplastic potential. The factors predisposing to cartilaginification and inhibiting this process were identified. Experimental positive results of perichondrial arthroplasty, in tuberculous arthritis as well, were achieved. By taking into account the experimental data, original methods for reparative operations used in patients with tuberculosis and nonspecific diseases of the joints were developed in the clinical setting. Their use in 12 patients yielded positive results, suggesting that the above methods are promising and their further study is advisable.

Tuberculous (TB) spondylitis, also known as Pott's disease, was first described by Percivall Pott in 1779. The diagnosis of TB spondylitis is often delayed because of the non-specific nature of the infection, which can lead to severe consequences. Differential diagnosis is especially critical in cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy who present with lymph node or bone metastasis.
