Tuberculosis (TB) continues to be a public health problem in both developing and industrialized countries. TB of the skeletal muscle is very rare. We present a case of the simultaneous involvement of skeletal muscles in multiple sites in an 11-year-old immune-competent female patient. All physicians should have adequate knowledge of TB and awareness of its atypical presentations to ensure the proper management of such patients.
结核病在发展中国家和工业化国家仍然是一个公共卫生问题。骨骼肌结核非常罕见。我们报告一例11岁免疫功能正常的女性患者同时出现多个部位骨骼肌受累的病例。所有医生都应具备足够的结核病知识并了解其非典型表现,以确保对此类患者进行恰当的管理。
