A case with multisystemic involved of tuberculosis

Birden fazla sistemi tutan tüberküloz olguları, sıklıkla çocuklarda ve AIDS gibi immün sistemin baskılandığı hastalarda gö- rülmekle birlikte nadiren bildirilmektedir. Tüberküloz pek çok hastalığı taklit edebilir ve çok farklı klinik bulgularla karşı- mıza çıkabilir. On sekiz yaşında Gürcistanlı bir erkek hasta, çift görme, sağ el üçüncü parmakta şişlik ve yarayla başvur- du. Hastada orbital kemik ve yumuşak doku tüberkülozu, tüberküloz spondilit, tüberküloz daktilit, deri tüberkülozu ve ak- ciğer tüberkülozunu içeren multisistemik tutulum ile seyreden bir tüberküloz tanısı koyduk.
