The radiological features of osteoarticular tuberculosis are quite variable. The rareness of AIDS-associated tuberculosis and relatively mild course and imaging features may be the common feature of osteoarticular tuberculosis in Japan. Imaging features are generally similar to other low-grade infections, and liberal (often incomplete) use of ...

Chemotherapy for Osteoarticular Tuberculosis
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 2002Chemotherapy for tuberculosis in general and osteoarticular tuberculosis in particular poses certain peculiar problems that include chronicity of infection, infection by resistant mycobacteria, persistent mycobacteria, possibility of concomitant human immunodeficiency virus infection, and drug toxicity during prolonged treatment.

American Journal of Therapeutics, 2000
Tuberculous synovitis frequently presents as a monoarthritis of weight-bearing joints such as the hip, knee, or ankle. Owing to its low incidence in developed countries, the diagnosis is often delayed for months to years. Early diagnosis with a synovial biopsy permits prompt antituberculous therapy and substantially improves the prospect of ...

Osteoarticular Mycobacterium Tuberculosis
Orthopaedic Nursing, 1996Osteoarticular mycobacterium tuberculosis (TB) can present as a subtle insidious infection. Symptoms vary with bone TB. Osteoarticular TB generally responds to proper antimicrobial therapy, affording sufficient treatment and arrest of the disease process. Epidemiology, pathogenesis, treatment, and a case review are presented in this article.

Unusual Manifestations of Osteoarticular Tuberculosis
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 2002Unusual manifestations of osteoarticular tuberculosis, especially tubercular osteomyelitis, are described. Diagnostic problems may arise and lead to delay in treatment if these conditions are not considered in the differential diagnosis. The importance of bacteriologic and histopathologic confirmation of the disease is stressed.

Osteoarticular tuberculosis mimicking rheumatoid arthritis
Modern Rheumatology, 2012Tuberculosis (TB) remains a global burden despite extensive efforts to control it. TB arthritis commonly manifest as monoarthritis of weight-bearing joints. We report a rare presentation of osteoarticular TB involving multiple small joints of the hands, which mimicked rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Magnetic resonance imaging showed tenosynovitis.

Unusual locations of osteoarticular tuberculosis
Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery, 1997Tuberculosis continues to occur frequently in some underdeveloped regions. Bone and joint tuberculosis is less common than the pulmonary form. Fourteen cases of bone and joint tuberculosis in unusual locations are presented. Tuberculostatic treatment and surgical approach were associated in all the patients.

Problems in Diagnosing Osteoarticular Tuberculosis
JAMA, 1964Five patients with osteoarticular tuberculosis were presented as diagnostic problems because each was initially thought to have some other disease. Several factors were cited as reasons for the delay, including unusual sites of involvement, the lack of detectable pulmonary involvement, secondary pyogenic infections, and the absence of classical ...

General Principles of Osteoarticular Tuberculosis
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 2002Since approximately 1985, with the pandemic of the human immunodeficiency virus and with the increase in the number of people who are immunocompromised, there is a resurgence of tuberculosis worldwide. The diagnosis in endemic areas generally can be made on clinical and radiologic examinations.

[Osteoarticular tuberculosis].
Nihon rinsho. Japanese journal of clinical medicine, 2011As the incidence of tuberculosis in Japan decreases, osteoarticular tuberculosis becomes relatively rare. Therefore, it is often overlooked or misdiagnosed that leads to cryptic aggravation of the disease. On the other hand, because of population aging in Japan, degenerative conditions such as compression vertebral fracture or osteoarthritis should be ...
