Calcified Miliary Tuberculosis of the Spleen
The British Journal of Radiology, 1957Tuberculosis may be considered as the most common cause of splenic calcification. The other lesions that may ultimately calcify are infarct, hydatid disease, abscess, phleboliths and encysted haematoma (Shanks and Kerley, 1950). Haematogenous dissemination must begin with bacteraemia which is almost invariably present in primary tuberculous infection ...

The Pathogenesis of Pulmonary and Miliary Tuberculosis
Archives of Internal Medicine, 1979Tuberculosis is spread from human to human by airborne transmission; it is not a highly infectious disease. Primary infection remits in 90% of cases and is progressive in the remainder; it is accompanied by lymphohematogenous seeding of many organs, and reactivation may occur as early as three months or many years after initial infection.
