Two Elderly Patients with Disseminated Tuberculosis

Year 2021, Volume: 6 Issue: 1, 30 - 36, 31.03.2021

Abstract

A rapid diagnosis of disseminated TB is desirable, as early initiation of treatment can reduce fatality. The definitive diagnostic tests of DTB are variable owing to atypical presentations and diagnostic difficulties. Our diagnostic tests (radiological, laboratory, histopathological) contributed valuable information about TB to us. There are 4 figures of two patients in this report.
