Skeletal muscle infection caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis is rare and usually caused by invasion from adjacent structures. We describe a 15-year-old male youth with tuberculous right inguinal lymphadenitis and right calf swelling who had tuberculous pyomyositis of the soleus, probably resulting from hematogenous seeding. Tuberculosis should be suspected as the cause of pyomyositis, especially if present elsewhere.
由结核分枝杆菌引起的骨骼肌感染较为罕见，通常是由邻近结构的侵袭所致。我们描述了一名15岁男性青年，患有结核性右腹股沟淋巴结炎和右小腿肿胀，其比目鱼肌出现结核性脓性肌炎，可能是血行播散所致。应怀疑结核病是脓性肌炎的病因，尤其是在其他部位也有病变时。
