The significance of bone-plastic fixation of the spine in its tbc lesions, according to Kopylov, lies not in the mechanical assistance of the graft, but in the complex biological processes reduced to the irritation and revitalization of inflammatory and regenerative functions of the body in response to the infection. Based on such a view, the author believes; that Lawallе's operation, consisting in introduction of bone plates into the thickness of diseased tbc epiphyses, finds its theoretical justification.
