Although both pulmonary and extrapulmonary tuberculosis (TB) are commonly encountered in developing countries, tenosynovitis is an uncommon presentation of musculoskeletal TB. TB mimics a lot of other conditions and causes diagnostic dilemma in day-to-day practice. We present the case of a 30-year-old male who presented with the complaints of swelling of right index finger which was initially suspected to be giant cell tumour of the flexor tendon sheath but on histological examination turned out to be tuberculous tenosynovitis.
尽管在发展中国家肺部和肺外结核病都很常见，但腱鞘炎是肌肉骨骼结核的一种罕见表现。结核病可模仿许多其他病症，在日常临床实践中造成诊断难题。我们报告一例30岁男性病例，该患者因右手食指肿胀前来就诊，最初怀疑是屈肌腱鞘巨细胞瘤，但组织学检查结果显示为结核性腱鞘炎。
