TUBERCULOSIS
THE BASIC MICROSCOPIC LESION;
THE TUBERCLE
FIRST DISCOVERED BY THE FRENCH
PHYSICIAN LAENNEC (1781-1826)
WHO DIED AT THE AGE OF 45 BY TB
TUBERCULOSIS
ESTIMATED 30 MILLION TB PATIENTS
WORLD WIDE.
1 -3 % (300 000 – 1000 000) HAVE
SKELETAL INVOLVEMENT
TUBERCULOSIS OF
BONES AND JOINTS
TB Bacilli lived in symbiosis with
mankind since time immemorial.
Recorded in ancient Egyptian
mummies
Still common in developing countries
REDUCED INCIDENCE
OF TB DUE TO:
IMPROVED LIVING STANDARDS;
SANITATION, HYGIENE, NUTRITION
B.C.G. VACCINE (80% PROTECTION)
TUBERCULOSIS BACILLI
MYCOBACTERIUM TUBERCULOSIS
BOVINE
UNPASTEURISED MILK
HUMAN
MORE COMMON

TUBERCULOSIS
GROUPS AT RISK
NON AFFLUENT COUNTRIES
OVER GROWING MALNUTRITION, POOR
YOUNGER AGE
AFFLUENT COUNTRIES
IMMUNE DEFICIENT
STEROIDS ANTICA
OLDER AGE
TUBERCULOSIS
FACTORS FAVORING
LOCALISATION
BLOOD SUPPLY AND STAGNATION
LOCAL TRAUMA; HAEMATOMA?
LOCAL STEROIDS ?
TB PATHOLOGY
Secondary to other primary TB lesions (Pulm.,
GL, Renal, LN)
Route of spread:
HAEMATOGENOUS ****
DIRECT (much less)
* bone to joint
* soft tissue to bone
THE PRIMARY LESION
QUIESCENT
ACTIVE: (Apparent, Latent)
