According to the literature, bovine tuberculosis in man has been an illness of minor importance in Norway, unlike in Sweden and Denmark. This situation cannot be explained, since in former days infected cattle were a problem in the southeastern part of the country in particular. No case of bovine tuberculosis in humans has been reported in Norway since 1940. Recently we have observed a 29-year-old female immigrant from India with cervical lymph node tuberculosis caused by M. bovis. A second case is a 77-year-old Norwegian male. In the 1920s, at the age of ten, he was infected in Norway by drinking raw milk from tuberculous cattle. He developed tuberculosis of the mesenterial lymph nodes. Neither of these patients had tuberculosis in any other part of their body. Previous Norwegian reports, covering eight cases, are summarized.
根据文献记载，与瑞典和丹麦不同，牛型结核在挪威一直是一种不太重要的疾病。这种情况无法解释，因为过去受感染的牛尤其是该国东南部的一个问题。自1940年以来，挪威没有报告过人类牛型结核病例。最近，我们观察到一名来自印度的29岁女性移民，患有由牛分枝杆菌引起的颈部淋巴结结核。第二例是一名77岁的挪威男性。在20世纪20年代，他十岁时在挪威因饮用患结核病奶牛的生牛奶而被感染。他患上了肠系膜淋巴结结核。这两名患者身体的其他部位均未患结核病。总结了挪威此前涵盖八例病例的报告。
