  abstract = {Objectives Establish a clinical standardized diagnosis and treatment strategy system for senile brucellosis spondylitis, and evaluate the clinical effect of applying this diagnosis and treatment system in order to improve the diagnosis rate and cure rate of the disease. Methods A diagnostic system was established based on the medical history, clinical, imaging, laboratory, bacteriological and pathological examinations of 70 elderly patients with brucellosis spondylitis admitted from January 2002 to December 2017. All patients received standardized drug therapy, anti-osteoporosis therapy and adjuvant hyperbaric oxygen therapy. Forty-two patients with spinal nerve injury received surgical treatment. Follow-up and evaluation were conducted at 2 weeks, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months after treatment. Results All patients were diagnosed after admission according to the diagnostic system standard examination. In this group, 28 patients (40%) received standardized drug therapy for non-surgical indications (group A), and 42 patients (60%) received surgical treatment for surgical indications (group B). VAS scores were significantly different between the two groups (P<0.05), group B was better than group a. Imaging scores showed that in group B, the myelopathy segments were stable without abscess and inflammatory granuloma, except for slow bone repair in the debridement area of the original myelopathy. Group A had no obvious vertebral lesion infiltration and interstitial infection absorption after 3 months of treatment, and gradually absorbed vertebral inflammatory infiltration and interstitial infection after 6 months. Clinical efficacy evaluation showed that both groups achieved good cure rates over time, and group B was better than group A (P<0.05). Conclusion Elderly brucellosis spondylitis has characteristic manifestations, and the establishment of a standardized diagnosis system will help improve the diagnosis rate; Synchronous drug therapy for BS and osteoporosis according to the treatment strategy has a good effect, and for patients who meet the indications for surgery, timely surgery can relieve or relieve pain, maintain spinal stability, and promote rapid recovery of nerve and spinal functions. It has obvious advantages and can better improve the clinical cure rate.},
