A peripheral nerve tuberculoma, the third on record, involved the ulnar nerve, as did the other two. This case report is followed by a discussion of the pathogenesis and diagnosis of this lesion. Its pathogenesis is unclear. Direct infection from a tuberculous sister was disproved, and infection via a local wound is highly unlikely. A previous, silent form of tuberculosis seems to have been the cause.
一例周围神经结核瘤（有记录以来的第三例）累及尺神经，前两例也是如此。本病例报告之后是对该病变的发病机制和诊断的讨论。其发病机制尚不清楚。已排除来自结核性姐妹病灶的直接感染，经局部伤口感染的可能性也极小。似乎既往存在的隐匿型肺结核是病因。
