Tuberculosis remains a major cause of skeletal infection in many parts of the world. With the advent of acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) and mass emigration from underdeveloped to industrialized nations this past decade, a new patient population is being encountered in which extrapulmonary tuberculosis is not uncommon and atypical presentations may confuse the diagnosis. Our recent experience with an unusual presentation has prompted this report.
在世界许多地区,结核病仍然是骨骼感染的主要原因。随着获得性免疫缺陷综合征(艾滋病)的出现以及过去十年中从欠发达国家向工业化国家的大规模移民,出现了一类新的患者群体,在这些患者中肺外结核并不罕见,而且非典型表现可能会使诊断变得复杂。我们最近遇到的一次不寻常表现促使了本报告的撰写。
