The case of an 8-year-old boy with tuberculous arthritis of the right knee in whom patellar disease was the only radiological abnormality is presented. The patellar findings were a large lytic area with sclerotic borders containing a dense image corresponding to a sequestrum. Open biopsy was necessary for diagnosis, since the radiological abnormalities are consistent with other chronic infectious diseases.
本文介绍了一名8岁男孩右膝关节结核性关节炎的病例，其髌骨病变是唯一的放射学异常。髌骨的表现为一个大的溶骨性区域，边界硬化，内有一个与死骨相对应的致密影像。由于放射学异常与其他慢性感染性疾病一致，因此需要进行开放活检以明确诊断。
