Osteoartiküler tüberküloz

Tüberküloz (Tbc) halen dünyada önemli bir halk sağlığı problemidir. Ekstrapulmoner Tbc giderek önem kazanmakta ue yeni olguların yaklaşık %15'ini oluşturmaktadır. Osteoartiküler Tbc, hastalığın sık olmayan bir formudur ve tüm olgulann %1-5'ini oluşturur. Eklemler az rastlanan infeksiyon yeridir ve bu nedenle periferal Tbc'nin nadir olduğu düşünülür. Tbcart-rit genellikle monoarükülerdir fakat oligoarüküler tutulum da bildirilmiştir. Burada Osteoartiküler Tbc'li dört olgu sunuldu ue konu ile ilgili literatür gözden geçirildi.

Osteoarticular tuberculosis

Tuberculosis (Tbc) remains as a major public health problem in the world. Extrapulmonary Tbc is gaining importance and it accounts for approximately 15% of all new cases. Osteoarticular Tbc is an infrequent form of the disease, accounting for 1-5% of all cases. Joints are uncommon site of infection; therefore, periferal Tbc is considered rare. Tbc arthritis are usually monoarticular but oligoarticular involvement are also reported. We presented here four cases with Osteoarticular Tbc and reuiewed the literature.
